18 October 2007 08:44 (UTC +04:00)

â€œ We prepared seriously against your team. My team was trained well both physically and tactically. However, we did not expect such score. We were lucky to score early goal in the matchâ€, Serbian head coach Javier Clemente was quoted as he was speaking the press conference after the match.
The Spanish coach of Serbia team said the early goalâ€™s influence on the result of the match is important. â€œOne should not forget that the five leading footballers of Serbia did not play against Azerbaijan. Triggered by early goal Azeri team went on attacks and we made use of the gaps in the defence of your team. I am pleased with my team as they did their work. Despite everything this match went down in history. We aim wining the two matches and enter finalâ€. /APA-Sport/
