"If each of us shows character on the field against France, as in the last game, I think we will get a good result."
Idman.biz reports with reference to Sportinfo.az that these words were said by the national team's forward Rustam Ahmadzadeh.
He assessed the 1:1 draw in the last qualifying match against Ukraine as a satisfactory result:
"We entered the game with the preparation of the new head coach. We had very little time. Nevertheless, we were fighting for the victory. In the end, we were satisfied with one point, which makes us happy."
The football player, who was invited to the team by Aykhan Abbasov, emphasized that this meeting was of particular importance for him:
"To be honest, this call-up was unexpected for me. I had a two-day break at the club, I was almost resting. Then I received an invitation to the national team. Especially, the game went well. I am glad that, in addition to inviting me to the team, they also gave me the opportunity to play. The game was very important and I am very happy that we scored 1 point."
