"Kayrat" coach before the match against "Sporting": "We will show our strength, "Qarabag" is an example"

"Qarabag"'s victory over "Benfica" proved that names don't play, real people come out on the field. We will also put all our strength into the game against "Sporting".

Idman.biz, referring to "Qafqazinfo", reports that Rafael Urazbakhtin, head coach of the Kazakhstan club "Kayrat", said this today before the match against "Sporting" in the first round of the main stage of the UEFA Champions League.

The coach stated that their opponents are motivated for the game against the last Portuguese champion "Sporting": "The game against "Sporting" is exciting for us. We are participating in the group stage of the Champions League for the first time. All teams are at a high level at this stage. This is an opportunity to both show ourselves and test our strength against a well-known opponent. The game against "Sporting" will show how ready we are. We are looking forward to the match".

Urazbakhtin stated that there is no faith in "Kayrat" in Europe: "Everywhere they write that we will be a donor team giving points in the Champions League. Of course, this hurts us. We want to prove the opposite and show that we deserve to play at this level. Getting into the Champions League is a big event for us anyway. We don't feel pressure, we will go out on the field and show our best qualities".

It should be noted that the "Sporting" - "Kayrat" match will start today at 23:00 Baku time.
