Abduqodir Husanov: The defender who justified Guardiola's trust

The match between "Nottingham Forest" and "Manchester City" in the 28th round of the Premier League was filled with interesting and intense struggles for the fans. The "cityzens," who are fighting for the championship, aimed to win this match, but the home team defended strongly and created threats through counterattacks.

Guardiola pleased with Husanov's performance

In this match, one of the new transfers of the "Manchester City" team, Abduqodir Husanov, entered the field from the very first minutes. The Uzbek defender, who has been gaining the trust of fans with his excellent performance this season, once again demonstrated his high level. He did not allow the opposing forwards – Callum Hudson-Odoi and Chris Wood – to perform effectively.

After the match, "Manchester City" coach Josep Guardiola praised Husanov's performance:

“We really played very well in the center of defense. Right now, we have no other central defenders. Especially, Abduqodir Husanov made great efforts, as did Ruben Dias. We did not allow dangerous situations in front of our goal. Our players were able to show themselves in defense. The competition took place under strong pressure.”

Husanov – a successful transfer

Husanov, who transferred from the "Lance" club to "Manchester City" on January 20 of this year, has played a total of seven matches in the Premier League, FA Cup, and UEFA Champions League. Scoring one goal in his career was also an unexpected and pleasant surprise for the fans.

Experts note that since Husanov joined "City," there has been a noticeable improvement in the team's defensive line. Especially in the absence of Guardiola's experienced defenders – John Stones, Nathan Ake, and Manuel Akanji – Husanov has become an important player for the team.

“City”'s championship chances

Despite the current results, it is difficult for "Manchester City" to retain the English championship this season. The "Liverpool" and "Arsenal" teams are showing strong performances and leading the tournament table. Nevertheless, "City" aims to win the FA Cup and finish the season with a trophy.

Abduqodir Husanov, in this journey, can justify Guardiola's trust and become an important figure for the team. His precise passes, strong one-on-one duels, and determination in defense are highly appreciated by fans and experts.

Husanov's career at "Manchester City" is developing rapidly. His important role in the team's defensive line and his ability to justify Guardiola's trust are gaining significant recognition among Premier League fans. For the Uzbek legionnaire, this may just be the beginning!
