The Azerbaijan national football team face a crucial away match against Liechtenstein in Group 2 of League D in the UEFA Nations League. Ahead of the match on 13 November, we contacted former national team striker Samir Aliyev to ask what he expects from the encounter in Vaduz.
The experienced coach told Fanat.az:
“Although our opponents managed to sit back and ‘snatch’ 1 point from us in Baku, I believe our national team will score the goal or goals they need in Vaduz and achieve their objective. This is a great opportunity for our team. Both the players and the coaching staff understand the importance of the match. We can agree that Liechtenstein are not opponents of a calibre to cause our national team serious problems. Of course, they will sit back again, but I firmly believe we will break down their defence and score over the 90 minutes. I wish our national team the best of luck.”
The Liechtenstein v Azerbaijan match will kick off at 23:45 Baku time.
