Speaking to journalists, Gayibov said he tries to watch as many matches as possible despite the significant time difference between North America and Azerbaijan.

The 2026 FIFA World Cup, jointly hosted by the United States, Canada and Mexico, is currently in its knockout stage and has attracted global attention with a series of dramatic matches and surprising results.
