Performing in tournaments
Azerbaijan has regularly participated in qualifying rounds for major international tournaments since the mid-1990s, but it was not until the European Championship in 2010 under the Brazilian coach Alesio , who, in addition to Azerbaijani players, also counted on several naturalized Brazilians. In the final round, the team reached the semi-finals straight away and was only subject to Portugal's selection after six-meter shooting .
