AMF Vice-President: "We weren't lucky in the Champions League, we intend to increase the number of titles in the European Championship"

Taleh Nasibov, Executive Vice-President of the Azerbaijan Minifootball Federation (AMF), does not think that our clubs performed poorly in the Champions League.

According to Idman.biz, he said this in a statement to journalists.

Let us remind you that all three of our clubs - "Aznur", "Birbaşa Bakı" and "Zirə" have stopped their performances in the tournament.

T. Nasibov said that he watched the games of "Aznur", "Birbaşa Bakı" and "Zirə" in the tournament: "Our expectations were mostly from "Birbaşa Bakı" and "Zirə" clubs. "Aznur" also showed itself on the good side. There were great hopes. There were members of our national team who were world champions. I don't think they performed poorly. There was bad luck. The penalty shootout played a decisive role. I think that in the coming years one of our teams can become the winner of the Champions League".

The AMF official did not rule out the impact of the World Championship in Baku on the performance of the clubs: "We are not focusing entirely on this. Our teams performed well. They were on the list of favorites".

He spoke about the goals in the upcoming European Championship: "Psychological preparation is very important. Coaches should work on this. We should not be comfortable. If we have become world champions, we should not be satisfied with that. We intend to increase the number of our titles".
