Our famous coach Gurban Gurbanov acted with great dignity and said in a situation that can be considered a goal, saying no, we do not need it, we do not need fake achievements, we do not need unattainable success.
Axar.az reports that the statement came from President Ilham Aliyev while receiving the members of the Azerbaijani national wrestling team participating in the European Wrestling Championship in Hungary.
"What we have achieved, we have achieved with our own work. We have also solved the Karabakh issue with our own work, strength and intelligence. The concept of fair play should not be forgotten in sports competitions, and Azerbaijani athletes should always follow these principles. Victory, of course, is very important for every athlete, it leaves a big mark on his life, as they say. But it is more important than victory, and we fought the war with dignity. Today, the whole world sees the greatness of our people, everything is in sight. You have won this halal victory due to your talent and hard work, and at the same time, you have once again shown the greatness of our people. I congratulate you on both the victory and the dignified behaviour. Of course, we, all the people of Azerbaijan, expect new victories from you" - said the head of state.
