"We analyzed the opponent well, but it didn't work out. Losing with this kind of game is really very upsetting." Sport24.az reports with reference to AZERTAC that these words were said by Agil Nabiyev, the head coach of the Azerbaijani national team under 16, after the final game against Russia in the III CIS Games, which they lost with a score of 2:3.
He explained the reasons for the defeat: "We had problems with the physical condition of the players. We can't load them too much. We also have little international experience. For this reason, we couldn't withstand it, especially in the last minutes. After the opposing players scored consecutive goals, our team lost spirit. In fact, in both halves, our players were able to fulfill the tasks assigned. I congratulate them. They showed character in the true sense of the word."
