"I thank Aykhan Abbasov for giving me this chance. I am happy to have made my debut. I will try to be better in order to be worthy of the national team." Sport24.az reports that these words were said by Azerbaijani national team football player Rufat Abdullazade in his statement to journalists.
The football player, who lives as a legionnaire in Croatia, shared his thoughts on the match they lost 0:2 to Iceland:
"I believed I would be given a chance. I want to play more games for the national team. We fought well. We wanted to win at least one point. Aykhan muellim prepared us for this in training. We call on our fans to support us in the game against France. Everyone knows the strength of France. If we are a fighting team, results will come slowly. I have never been in the national team under the leadership of a foreign coach. It's my first time here and the atmosphere is great."
It should be noted that the Azerbaijan-Iceland match ended with a 2:0 victory for the visitors.
