Azerbaijan took the lead in the 7^th minute, when Musa Gurbanli entered the penalty area of the BH team on the right and hit from about ten meters the opposite corner of Nikola Ćetković’s goal.

BH equalled the result in the 16^th minute. The goalkeeper of Azerbaijan, Mahammad Ahmadov, after a corner shot, rejected the ball to the edge of the penalty area, where Anes Hrustanović sent the ball into the net by the volley kick.

The captain Faruk Duraković made a good attempt from twenty meters in the 31^st minute, but the ball went just above the crossbar.

Hamza Gasal passed well on the right in the 36^th minute and sent a return ball to Dino Cviko, who shot from about 10 meters besides the goal.

Gurbanli scored the second goal for Azerbaijan in the 45^th minute, with a precise shot from the right side.

Đorđe Nišić scored for 2:2 in the 52^nd minute, while Sergei Vitonji assisted him.

Ajdin Jusupović passed from the left in the 70^th minute and threw the ball into the penalty area of Azerbaijan, where Nemat Musayev scored an own goal for the final 3:2 in favour of the BH team.

After the match, the head coach Sakib Malkočević stated: “We cannot be satisfied with the performance of our team in this tournament. Except for thirty minutes against Croatia and the results of today’s game, everything else was bad. We have five months until the qualifications and a lot of work is ahead of us. We will have to complement this team with new players. There are also football players here for who we have to pay attention, but there are plenty of them that are not at this level, neither physically nor tactically.”

The last match of this tournament between Macedonia and Croatia will start at 14:00 h at the Zenica Training Camp.
