We would like to inform you of the thoughts told by the head coaches of both teams after today's Azerbaijan - Uzbekistan match:

Jose Alesio Da Silva (Head coach of the national team of Azerbaijan): “During the first 10 minutes my team was very quiet. As if they were not in the game. They got tuned to the game when half of the first part was left behind. The Uzbekistan nationals had a double desire against us. We have a break in the High League right now and we need to put the futsal back in shape. As I said before, we have staff problems. Some of our players have just recovered their injuries.

Of course, in such games, it is important to check the readiness of the team, rather than the result. Now we have to see our mistakes, not to repeat them in official games. We'll analyze this before tomorrow's game, and this time we will perform differently. Of course, we do not want to lose a second time.”

Bahodir Ahmedov (Head coach of the national team of Uzbekistan): “It's a pleasure for me to come to Baku. I would like to thank the management of the federation for the conditions they have created for us. Both teams had enough chances to make a difference, but we made the most of it. The key factor in our victory is our ability to play defense correctly. This is also an important factor in futsal. Of course, in such friendly matches, the score does not come to the fore. The main objective is to check the new futsal players involved in the squad. Our opponent also left a good impression. I think that we and Azerbaijan national team have a chance to qualify for the finals of the World Cup to be held in Lithuania".
