Ufa striker Hamid Agalarov on Match TV reacted to the failure to be recruited to the Russian national football team.
“I will not say that I was upset, because this is the choice of the coaching staff. If it’s better for the national team, then I’m all for it, ”said the footballer. He added that he will try to benefit the youth national team, although the emotions from victories in the youth team and the main team are not comparable. Agalarov noted that playing for the main team is his dream since childhood.
On November 4, it became known that Agalarov became the player of the month in the Russian Premier League (RPL). The footballer leads the RPL scorers’ race with 11 goals.
Initially, Agalarov was included in the expanded list of players called up to the Russian national team for the November matches of the qualifying tournament for the 2022 World Cup, but was left without an invitation to the final squad. The head coach of the team, Valeriy Karpin, explained his decision by the fact that in the matches with Cyprus and Croatia he will rely on more experienced players.
