"In fact, there was practically no weak team in our pot. Each one was strong, and as a result, we also got a strong team."
Idman.biz reports that Ulvi Iskandarov, a football player of "Araz-Nakhchivan," said this in his statement to Telegraf while evaluating the draw for the second qualifying round of the UEFA Conference League.
The 27-year-old striker stated that he does not yet have detailed information about the Greek team "Aris": "Because the draw was just made, and the team we will face is now known. At the current stage, we should focus our main attention on ourselves – the full formation of the team, the quick adaptation of future legionnaires, and the preparation process based on the instructions given to us by the coaching staff will be decisive in this regard. It will be possible to analyze more accurately how the opponent plays and what tactics they can use against us after the team is fully assembled."
According to Iskandarli, the main goal in the first stage is to prepare well for the game and get a ticket to the next stage: "As for my personal opinion, we want to pass at least one or two stages. This is important both for us and for the development of the club."
He also emphasized the importance of the adaptation of new transfers to the team: "Of course, we must prepare well in the coming period. The adaptation of players who will newly join the team is very important. We, as the existing staff, must do our best to ensure their quick adaptation. At this stage, the joint efforts of all players are important so that everyone can make the maximum contribution to the success of the team."
It should be noted that "Araz-Nakhchivan" will play the first match against "Aris" at home on July 24, and the return match on July 31 away.
