"We played a very good game today."

According to the Apasport.az website, the head coach of the Azerbaijan national team, Gianni de Byazi, said this while talking about the last match against Kazakhstan in the group stage of the UEFA Nations League.

Our team defeated its opponent with a score of 3:0 in the match held at "Dalga Arena" and finished on the 2nd place in the 3rd group of the C league with 10 points.

At the post-game press conference, the Italian specialist evaluated the performance of his team: "We made less mistakes than before.

But we have to be better in terms of turning chances into goals.

I was satisfied with the performance of my team in the second half.

We played well in all the matches in the group.

We deserved to win even when we lost to Kazakhstan in the first match.

We are on a positive path, the team is developing."

- What was the reason why Amin Seydiyev was left out of the "23" today?


- I made a different decision today.

Amin is a good player, he can develop and become the future of Azerbaijan.

He is a dynamic player, but he needs to improve tactically.

Today I decided to play an offensive game.

- For 90 minutes, the fan club of the national team was sitting on your head.

You did not approach them after the victory.

Were you in a hurry?


- There was an episode in the game, the football player slipped, the fans laughed at him.

But I cheered and so did the fan club.

It is important to support the players.

- Was it a tactical move that you reserved Mahir Emreli, or was it due to the fact that he did not play in his club?


- Yes, he played little in Mahir's club.

We knew that he would not be able to play from start to finish.

He is a good player, but he should not play just to score goals.

So you can't do anything.
