The Azerbaijani national minifootball team advanced to the 1/8 finals by defeating Mauritania in the 3rd round of the World Championship held in Baku. Sport24.az reports that the head coach of our team, Elshad Guliyev, made statements after the game:
I thank our people for supporting us. The fans supported us until the end. As a result, we won. It was a difficult game. We worked patiently to find gaps in the opponent's defense. We were able to score goals near the end. I congratulate my team. We showed a good game.
- Which was the most difficult game in the group stage?
- The games are getting harder and harder. The opponents also analyze us. No team plays open football. They all build the game from defense. Because of this, we lose a lot of strength, it becomes twice as difficult.
