"It was a really interesting and good experience".
This was stated by "Zira" striker Leroy Mikels in an interview with futbolinfo.az.
We present that interview.
– There is a match against "Neftchi" ahead. There is also a 1 point difference between you. Can this meeting be considered the most important game of the season?
– I wouldn't say it's the most important game, but it's one of the important matches for us. After "Neftchi" we will also play with "Turan Tovuz". We have important matches in a row. We will also play against "Turan Tovuz" in the Cup.
– You were invited to the Rwanda national team within the framework of "FIFA Series-2026". How did it feel to be in the national team?
– It was really an interesting and good experience. When you go to Africa, the love that arises there, the warm welcome of the people, and you responding to it with goals is a wonderful feeling. Of course, it was memorable for me with special moments.
– You scored your first goal for the national team against Grenada and it was a perfect goal. How would you describe that moment yourself?
– I feel good because I score goals. Of course, the goals I score make me happy. It was very enjoyable moments.
– You didn't go to the national team alone. Your brother Coy-Lens Mikels and your teammate from "Zira", Anje Mutsinzi, were also with you. How was it playing with them in the national team?
– We won the cup and everyone played a role in this success. It's comfortable for me to play with Jimmy (Anje Mutsinzi's nickname) in the national team. Because we also play together in the club. But my brother and I are rivals and we are always playing against each other.
