"I express my gratitude to the Bangladeshi side for organizing such a tournament".
Idman.Biz, referring to the official website of AFFA, reports that these words were said by Siyasat Asgarov, the head coach of the Azerbaijan national women's football team, in his statement after the match against the local team (2:1) within the framework of the "FIFA Tri Nations Women's Football Series 2025" tournament held in Dhaka, the capital of Bangladesh.
"The people here also welcomed us beautifully. As for the game, our opponent was quite strong. In my opinion, they should have defeated Malaysia in the first match. A mistake was decisive in that meeting. The Bangladesh national team also prepared well for the match with us and wanted to win. In the first 15 minutes, they put pressure all over the field, making it difficult for us. It is a team that stands out with its unique counter-attacking football. They showed this in the game as well. Although we opened the scoring, we soon conceded a goal. Because the opponent was doing everything to stand out. They performed better in the second half. However, our defenders showed a successful performance and prevented the opponent's attacks. We changed the game plan, we resorted to substitutions. We also benefited from this. I think that both teams showed an interesting game and the fans who came to the stadium did not regret it. It was a holiday for women's football. Both the Bangladesh Football Federation and AFFA gained something from this holiday," he said.
It should be noted that our national team, which won victories over the national teams of Malaysia (2:0) and Bangladesh (2:1), became the winner of the "FIFA Tri Nations Women's Football Series 2025" tournament.
