The match between the national teams of Azerbaijan and Saint Lucia, which ended with a big victory (6:1) for our football players, caused a great resonance. Despite the heavy rain in Sumgayit, Rail Malikov, the former leading defender of the national team, who played more than 50 games in the national team, was among those who watched the game.
He commented on what he saw on the field in his interview with Idman.Biz.
"To be honest, I was expecting a victory, but not with such a big score. The opponent was weak, but the main thing is that we ended the winless streak that lasted about two years. I am happy that the children scored the fastest goal in the history of the national team and won with a record score.
The coach's hand was visible in this game. It was the right move to make a massive rotation at halftime, and it allowed us to test almost all the reserve players in action. I am sure that we will at least not lose in the next game against the Sierra Leone team. These matches are an excellent test of potential before the start of the Nations League, where it is simply necessary for our team to get out of League D as soon as possible," said Rail Malikov.
