“We fought head to head with a strong opponent Norway”

“First of all, I thank my players for today's game and I am proud of them. The team showed real determination on the field and deservedly represented Azerbaijan football. Although Norway played to be the first in the group, we did not give them a chance in the first half. Despite the mutual attacks after the break, the opponent took advantage of the opportunity. But thanks to substitutions, we turned the game around and equalized the score. However the Norwegian team differed from the standard situation and scored the winning goal. Despite the result, we fought head to head with a strong opponent Norway. I appreciate my team”.
