Berti Vogts quits as Azerbaijani coach 

Baku, October 17, AzerTAc German football coach Berti Vogts has announced his resignation as manager of Azerbaijan`s national team. “Unfortunately, I cannot see my future in the Azerbaijan national team,” he told President of the Association of Football Federations of Azerbaijan (AFFA) as they met in Zurich, Switzerland. The German coach said he was ready to help Azerbaijan any time despite leaving the team. Mr. Vogts also thanked AFFA for their support.
