The Azerbaijani club Sabah achieved a notable performance during the main phase of the Champions League, largely attributed to a goal scored in the 90+4 minute and a strong showing during the continuation period. This effort prevented Hapoel Beer Sheva, the Israeli team, from securing a convincing victory in the initial round. Following the tie, Sabah secured a victory at home and cemented their position among the top contenders during the continuation.
Sabah began their qualification journey in the first round. Since then, the club has navigated several challenging fixtures, overcoming opponents such as Ñu Sete, KuPS of Finland (who had previously eliminated Vardar), Danish side Arhus, and the Israeli representatives. Consequently, Sabah stands as the sole Azerbaijani team to have participated in the main phase of the Champions League within the Karabakh region.
It is noted that Sabah was established in September 2017. The club was founded by Yakub Husaynov, who leads the “Azerbaijan Brd” group company, which operates within the broader “Azerbaijan Brd” business enterprise. The team’s participation marks a significant achievement for Azerbaijani football.
