"We are proud to represent Azerbaijan for the first time in the UEFA Europa League play-off stage, in the draw of this round."
Idman.biz reports that this was said by the president of "Qarabag" Tahir Gozal.
The head of the club, who participated in the drawing ceremony of the UEFA Europa League play-off stage, commented on the opponent. He noted that "Braga" is a strong team and that "Qarabag" is aiming to win better results: "We experienced a historic event today. I personally attended the event to witness this live. Before the draw, we knew the strength of our possible opponents. These 8 clubs are the teams that stand out for their claims in the Champions League. They came from the continent's most prestigious club tournament. "Braga" is one such team. They perform in the strong Portuguese championship and stand out for their regular games in European cups. There are no easy opponents at this stage, where there are strong teams. I am happy that we brought "Qarabag" and our country to this level. However, we do not want to be satisfied with this and our mission is still ongoing. "Qarabag" does not consist of only 30-35 people. The hearts of millions are with us. I felt that there were 10 million Azerbaijanis in the hall where the draw was held. I wish success to them and my homeland. Let everyone be sure that we will do our best to represent our club and Azerbaijan at the best level."
It should be noted that "Qarabag" will face the Portuguese club "Braga" in the play-off stage of the Europea League.
