Building a team in a country with a very low-level national league, far from professional football, elevating it to the Champions League, and going on to defeat "Benfica" in Portugal is entirely the result of one person's talent, skill, and leadership in this field.
Establishing a system in lands where the culture of systematic work and long-term planning has not yet settled, finding and bringing players at a low cost and instilling this system in them, creating a football team where collective spirit, not individual players, prevails, a team that is physically not crushed against European teams, mentally strong and disciplined, transforms Qurban Qurbanov into a world-class expert who far surpasses the boundaries of Azerbaijani football.
For example, including Okan Buruk, who has been the champion in Turkey for 3 consecutive years and whom we all watch, there is no local coach at Qurban’s level.
