"I am watching the games of "Qarabag". The champion of Azerbaijan continues to make surprises."
These words were said by Yıldıray Baştürk, a former member of the Turkish national team, who won a bronze medal at the World Championship in 2002 as part of the team.
He said that Aghdam's representative shook Europe.
"A very good team has been formed. Gurban Gurbanov is a great coach. By playing good football, they have become a surprise to all of Europe. Keeping their play-off chances for the last game with an opponent like "Liverpool" makes the situation difficult. Reaching this stage is really an indicator of great determination and is a very important achievement. As for their chances in this match, the Mersyside representative is undoubtedly a very influential team with great experience in the Champions League. Therefore, the meeting will be very difficult. But if "Qarabag" can show the performance they have shown so far on the field, they may have a chance to get a point. Of course, it must be a special day for the Azerbaijani club. At the same time, the opponent should not be in good condition. But why not? Anything is possible in football," he said in a statement to AZERTAC.
Y. Baştürk, who once wore the uniform of German "Bayer" (Leverkusen) and English "Blackburn" teams, said that he did not want to single out any particular football player in the "Qarabag" squad:
"They demonstrate exemplary football as a team. "Qarabag" has a strong team spirit. This is one of the biggest advantages of the Azerbaijani representative."
It should be noted that the "Liverpool" - "Qarabag" match will start on the night of January 28-29 at 00:00 Baku time.
