"I can't say who will win. Because both teams play well, have good players and coaches."
This was stated by Julio Cesar Rodriguez, who played in Azerbaijan between 2019-2022, first in "Zira" and then in "Sabah", in an interview with futbolinfo.az.
The 35-year-old Paraguayan football player, who has played for various clubs after leaving our country, currently wears the uniform of "Atletico Mictlan", a representative of the third league of Argentina.
We present that interview.
– Are you following the Azerbaijan league? Today your two former teams, "Sabah" and "Zira", will meet in the final of the Azerbaijan Cup. What are your thoughts on this game?
– I always follow the events in Azerbaijani football in general. I am very happy for both teams. Because both of them are doing their job correctly, they achieve good results in the league as well. Frankly, I would love to play against one of these clubs in the final or in an international tournament.
– Which team do you think has a better chance of winning the cup?
– I can't say who will win. Because both teams play well, have good players and coaches. The side that is more focused on the game and makes fewer mistakes will win.
– "Sabah" became the champion of Azerbaijan. Do you think they are stronger now and have a high chance of winning the cup?
– "Sabah" is currently in a better state of mind. But the final game is completely different. I think it will be a good and interesting match, worth watching.
– Which team will you support in the final?
– Let the best win, brother. I can't make a choice. Both clubs gave me the opportunity to play in the Azerbaijan Premier League.
– What is the situation with the new club issue right now? Have you received an offer in Azerbaijan?
– There is nothing concrete yet. The transfer window opens in June. I will play where a concrete offer comes from.
