We came here after a hard result. We were able to show a quality game in the second half of the match with Luxembourg. There was a big difference between the parts. Tomorrow we must fight to the last second. All the teams in our group are ahead of us in terms of rankings. But we don't care. We want to return home with good results.

Axar.az reports that the head coach of the Azerbaijani national football team Gianni De Biazi said this at a press conference before the qualifying match for the 2022 World Cup against Ireland.

The Italian expert said that he has already determined the starting lineup: "Most of the players who will play in the second half of the match against Luxembourg will appear. But first we need to look at their situation. The next two games will not be easy."

According to the 65-year-old head coach, defeat can happen to anyone: "After every defeat, there is a feeling of revenge in the heart. It's as if you are being punched, you want to return it. But tomorrow we have to do it very wisely."

The match between Ireland and Azerbaijan, which will be held on September 4 at the Avivo Stadium in Dublin, will start at 20:00 Baku time.
