Farid Namazov: The influx of fans to youth teams' matches was surprising, our national team must also move forward

"Despite the fact that it was a game for 21-year-olds, the stadium was full of fans. There were even spectators from neighboring countries."

This was stated to Idman.biz by Farid Namazov, the former head coach of "Imishli", who was involved in training for the UEFA Pro category.

He shared the nuances that caught his attention during the session: "We are currently in Slovakia. We will be here until June 19. In the past few days, we have watched the matches between the national teams of the Czech Republic - Germany and Slovakia - Spain, consisting of 21-year-olds. Each of the teams at this level is very high quality. The fan factor was very surprising. Despite the fact that it was a game for 21-year-olds, the stands were full. There were even fans from neighboring countries. We have one last game left. Tomorrow we will go to the Czech Republic - Slovenia match. We will present its analysis after returning to Azerbaijan. We would like our team to participate in the final stage of this type of tournament. It's really a completely different atmosphere. When we evaluate the teams' performance, tactical skills and other aspects, we see that football has reached a high level and is developing day by day. Our national team must also move forward. I believe that in the coming years we will rejoice in the success of our team."
