At the press conference after the Azerbaijan-Slovakia game, which took place in the IV round of the UEFA Nations League, the head coach of our national team, Fernando Santus, said that he needs some time. 

In his statement to Offsideplus.az, the well-known manager Emil Shukurbeyli commented on the idea expressed by the coach:

  "If this expression had been used 20 years ago, it would have been possible to agree somewhere. If we bring in a foreign expert with a name and we cannot get results, let alone, if we do not have a game plan, why are we wasting the state's finances? We have enough coaches of the pro category. The decision-makers consulted , appoint someone worthy of the national team. Let them show their support to the local coach. When will we embrace the "tourists"? These three local candidates can help the national team, AFFA It will happen if he gives them the comprehensive support he gives to foreigners."

The expert also spoke about the possibility of our team being able to play normal football:

"The concept of normal football is abstract. If we are talking about the result, we need a coach who plays defensive football. No, if we want good football, we must be ready not to get positive results all the time. We have to sacrifice one of the two."
