FK Karabakh 3:0 Banga Gargzdai (2011 Europa League Qualification 1st round, 2nd leg)

Azerbaijan's FK Qarabağ battled through to the play-offs in the last two UEFA Europa League seasons, bowing out to FC Twente and then Borussia Dortmund. Gurban Gurbanov's team could be on their way again after completing a 7-0 aggregate triumph over Lithuania's FK Banga with a 3-0 home victory. They now head to the Faroe Islands to face EB/Streymur.

Karabakh? Qarabag? Why does this team seem to have two names? You use both here, and I've seen both used for this team elswhere, it annoys me I don't know what to call them!

It's a weird thing, Azerbaijan has better teams according to league results, but they accomplish little in Europe. This team is clearly Azerbaijan's European club. I first noticed them when they beat Rosenborg two years ago.

EB/Streymur should be no problem for them either, so they should at least reach Q3.

@Lorric101 , Qarabag is in Azerbaijani, Karabakh is used by Russian/English media. So both are fine to use as it means same club)

[AzeriBoy1707]

@AzeriLeague but in official web page this club is named Qarabagh. I think that English version of this word is Qarabagh.

@AzeriBoy1707 , now that is owner's fault for naming club like that. They also got wrong date in logo as it tells 1987, actually club is created in 1951

Qarabag nehayetki Azerbaycanin futbolda irelileye bileceyine umid getirdi ve Azerbaycanlinin da gozel futbol oynaya bildiyni gosterdi. Bele bir klubumuz olmamishdi ki ortabab veya zeif kluba qarshi dayanmadan hucum futbolu oynasin ve topu daima ozunde saxlasin.

İ said it always and i'm saying now.If Qurban Qurbanov takes the helm of national team then we'll see national team version of Barcelona in the world by Azerbaijan ! He's gotta lead Garabgh together National team. because this man almost created the new Barcelona from Qarabagh with 85% indigene players ! I wish'em good luck and hope to see Gurbanov as coach of Azerbaijan ntnl team

@Lorric101 lack of self-confidence :) and yeah, both can be used.

@AzeriLeague It's a big ask for any unseeded team in Round 4, never mind a team which has to start in round 1. There are seeded teams in Round 4, and some in Round 3 that will be simply too strong for anybody on the unseeded side let alone Qarabag. It will require a lot of luck.
