Today, the Azerbaijan national football team will play its second match within the "FIFA Series 2026" tournament. In Sumgayit, our national team will face the Sierra Leone national team.
Former striker of our national football team, Vagif Javadov, shared his thoughts on the game in an interview with Idman.Biz. He is currently the head coach of "Sumgayit"'s reserve team and has played more than 50 games for the national team.
"After a big win over St. Lucia, the team finally broke a long losing streak. Of course, Sierra Leone is a more serious opponent, but this will also make the game more interesting. I hope for a victory: even the weather today is setting the stage for a victory.
I am sure that there will be more fans in the stands than before. The team needs strong support from the "12th player" to consolidate the success of the first game," said Vagif Javadov.
It should be noted that the match will start at 19:00 at the Mehdi Huseynzade stadium, which has a capacity of more than 15,000 spectators.
