"I think it was a productive training camp. I think it went well." Sport24.az reports that these words were said by Jalal Huseynov, a football player of the Azerbaijani national team.
The 22-year-old defender shared his thoughts after the friendly match against Hungary in Baku yesterday, which they lost 1:2:
"Latvia (0:0) and Hungary were our opponents. We wanted to win both matches. We intended to make our fans happy. We haven't won in a long time. We also had chances to win in the first match. I don't think we played badly in that match either."
Huseynov said that they should give priority to team play: "I think if we fight together, we will win. We just need to be a little more confident. I don't think we should overestimate our opponents."
The player said that playing with a five-man or four-man defense is the choice of the head coach:
"We try to fulfill whatever tactics and instructions are given to us as much as possible. But our coach's wish is that we don't concede a goal. It's okay if we don't score, but the main thing is that we don't see the ball in our goal. This is one of the most important things. He tells us this many times. We try to do these things. I don't think it's bad either. Of course, we can improve even more."
