Tomorrow, within the framework of the "2026 World Cup" qualifiers, the Uzbekistan national team will compete against the Kyrgyz Republic. Ahead of this match, Uzbekistan's national team coach Timur Kapadze and midfielder Odiljon Hamrobekov participated and answered questions from journalists.
Below you can find Hamrobekov's thoughts:
- Good evening to everyone. First of all, we wish Katanets good health and express our gratitude. As for the game, you must have a good sense of the match level. The whole team needs to work together and fulfill the tasks set before us.
About considering ourselves superior in the game against the Kyrgyz Republic
- On the field, names or surnames do not play; rather, players need to act. Of course, if we go out saying we are this or that, it will create problems for us. Therefore, we will step onto the field while respecting Kyrgyzstan. We should never let the team's level distract us.
- Has Abduqodir's nickname changed among the players?
- Of course, Abduqodir's transfer has been a great motivation for both players and the younger generation. As for the nickname, maybe they have given him a nickname at "City," but we still call him by his name (laughs).
