Azerbaijan national team will face Mongolia today.
Idman.biz reports that the match to be held in Baku will be the first match of our national team in 2024.
With this, our team will start its 33rd year. Our team, which played its first official match on September 17, 1992, participated in international matches in 32 calendar years.
If we look through the statistics of the starting games of our national team, we can see that our team started with a victory in only 6 of the previous 32 years. The last successful start occurred in 2017. At that time, our national team was happy with the victory over Qatar (2:1).
There were 10 draws in the first tests of the year. The scoreless peace in Antalya with Moldova in 2018 was the last such result.
The team lost 16 of the first meetings. In 7 of those defeats, a big score was recorded.
Our team starts with defeat in the last 5 years. The national team, which has been in the "black streak" since 2019, should put an end to this unfortunate tradition in the meeting with Mongolia.
