World Minifootball Federation Vice President Peter Kralik stated that the World Championship held in Azerbaijan is different from the previous ones and that it was known in advance that the tournament would be held in the most beautiful way.
"Report" reports that he said this in a statement to journalists.
The official of the organization also assessed the Azerbaijani national team as one of the strongest teams in the competition:
"The World Championship held in Azerbaijan was very different from the previous ones in terms of organization. Last year we held it in the United Arab Emirates. The stadium there was built outdoors, on the beach. The biggest difference is that this time the team of the country organizing the World Championship is one of the 3 strongest participants in the competition. For this reason, it was clear that they would hold the tournament in the most beautiful way".
The Vice President thinks that the Azerbaijani national team is performing under pressure:
"The tournament will be very difficult for the Azerbaijani national team. Because they play under great pressure and there are high expectations. This puts even more pressure on the team. This makes it very difficult to stay mentally strong. If you are the host, the expectations are high and you have to achieve the highest success".
