"Such matches, and sports in general, are useful in terms of strengthening relations between countries. Therefore, the more such meetings, the better."
It was stated by Latvian Seimas MP Amil Salimov to Sports.az about the friendly match between the Azerbaijani and Latvian national teams to be held today, Idman.biz reports.
Azerbaijani MP of the Latvian Seimas said that today's match was doubly joyful for him: "I was at the match between our national teams here in 2018. Our national team, headed by Gurban Gurbanov, won 3:1. I really liked our match then, I really liked it.
Last year, I took a busload of Azerbaijani fans living in Latvia to Tallinn to our match with Estonia.
Today, Azerbaijanis living in Latvia and representatives of the diaspora will be at the stadium again, we will support our team.
Both countries are not native to me. Friendship will win!".
