Opportunity
And for Mongolia, it is an opportunity to further enhance communication and shared best practice with other associations.
"We are going to learn from the best practices of the Association of Football Federations of Azerbaijan," said Boldbaatar Batkhuu, head of the Mongolia delegation. "In particular, we’d like to learn how women’s and youth football teams are organised. Also, we’d like to get an insight into the Azerbaijani teams that have successfully competed in European competitions.
"We would like to work more closely with the Association of Football Federations of Azerbaijan. It would be great if Azerbaijani teams could come to Mongolia and share their knowledge and skills with aspiring young players.
I see this event as the first step towards building a solid relationship between our two countries as far as football is concerned."
Fifa Series
Mongolia kick off against Azerbaijan in the Tofiq Bahramov stadium on Friday before then facing Tanzania three days later.
"The FIFA Series is a really positive step forward for national-team football at global level," said FIFA President Gianni Infantino. "Our member associations have been telling us for a long time now of their desire to test themselves against their counterparts from all around the world, and now they can do so within the current Men’s International Match Calendar. "More meaningful matches will enable far more valuable footballing interaction for players, teams and fans, and will make a concrete contribution to the development of the game."
Otsuka
Mongolia introduced Shiuchi Mase - who unfortunately had to leave his post due to health concerns – and he was replaced by compatriot Ichiro Otsuka as the MFF formed a partnership with the Japanese Football Federation. Otsuka also oversees the U-23 team.
The Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) between Japan and Mongolia resulted in a 10-day stay for the Mongolian side ahead of the Hero Intercontinental Cup last year in Japan, giving the players access to state-of-the-art facilities in a five-star training camp.
"Not only are we liaising with the Japanese, we are Asian friends liaising together," said Otsuka. "So, that’s why the JFA sent me. Last year, we had good results against Spain and Germany; we beat them. In the future, of course, Mongolia, we have good talent in the young players – especially the young players – so one day we will be strong and we will beat Japan in the future."

Guess
Tanzania and Mongolia have been in a slump lately, as both failed to win their last games. The attack of both teams hasn't been very talented either, which suggests that the game could be dull. In fact, there might not be a goal at all.
