"Araz-Nakhchivan" head coach talks about UEFA CL games and team's tactical preparation

The futsal players of "Araz-Nakhchivan" have completed all the tasks in the first two matches they played in the main stage of the UEFA Champions League.

This was stated by the head coach of the team, Yevgeni Kuksevich, in an interview with "Report".

The specialist said that they analyzed the Austrian team "Ljuti Krajišniçi", which they will face in the last match of the preliminary stage:

"In both games, the team fulfilled the tasks and all the assignments in the way I wanted. Therefore, we achieved the necessary results. There are several young players in the team and they got a chance in the games. I think they were able to show themselves in a good way. We have watched the games of the Austrian team and have done some analysis. I am more interested in my own team. Because the opponent can also play deceptive football. I am watching the opponent, but I have my own thoughts and I am thinking about how my team will play. We have our own strategy, we must only play attacking football and with a desire to win against any opponent".

The Russian coach does not think that the victories they won in the first games will create complacency among the futsal players:

"I don't think that the victories we won in the first two games will create complacency among the players. Because I have individual conversations with each of them. I explain to them the importance of the tournament and the result. We represent not only "Araz Nakhchivan", but Azerbaijani football in general. In my opinion, all the players understand this. We will try to achieve the result we want in the game with the Austrian champion".

He said that the team had difficulty in mastering the tactics:

"The difficult part of our work is that the team is being rebuilt, which makes it a little difficult to master my tactics. Because we didn't have much time. But since the new players are at a good level, there was no problem in terms of assimilation. Khazar, Ulvi from the locals and Covani and Carlos, who remained from our team last year, played an important role in this regard. I guess that after this tournament, our trainings will gradually intensify and the new players will master my tactics at the required level. We only go to the field to win. In other words, we cannot have another result. The task is only and only to win, regardless of the opponent. In each game, we make certain tactical moves and changes. I believe that this will pay off. I thank the management for the created conditions. They have met all our needs and created the necessary conditions".

It should be noted that the Nakhchivan representative in Group F earlier defeated the Northern Ireland club "Sparta Belfast" with a score of 9:1, and the Scottish representative "PYF Saltires" with a score of 7:2.

The team will play its last match today against the Austrian champion "Ljuti Krajišniçi".
