Vagif Kasimov is one of the most prominent figures in the history of Azerbaijani football in Europe. The former striker, who lived a legionnaire life in Spain, made interesting statements about the country, football culture, and the current state of Azerbaijani football after all these years.
Idman.Biz reports that in an interview with the "Kandar" YouTube channel, the 57-year-old veteran football player recalled the rivalry between "Seville" and "Real Betis", and the events that took place before the derby:
"In comparison with "Betis", "Seville" was considered a richer club in terms of finance. "Seville" has always had expensive football players. Of course, their derby is very interesting. It differs from the "Real Madrid"-"Barcelona" derby. There is more room for wit and entertainment. Even if there is excitement, there is no tension or clash between the fans" – Vagif Kasimov noted.
