Abduqodir Husanov is the second fastest footballer in the Champions League
The UEFA press service has announced the list of players who reached the highest speeds in the Champions League group stage. This was reported by Zamin.uz.
This ranking is based on players' speed on the field, with the top spot taken by Real's forward Kylian Mbappe. He reached a speed of 34.9 km/h.
This result clearly put defenders to a serious test. The second place on the list was taken by Uzbek footballer and Manchester City defender Abduqodir Husanov.
He was just 0.2 km/h behind Mbappe, reaching a speed of 34.7 km/h. This is an important achievement not only for Husanov but also for Uzbek football, as he joined the ranks of players with high speed at the Champions League level.
Speed in modern football is not just about running but also about choosing the right position, sensing the timing, and making optimal decisions. Husanov was able to demonstrate himself in these aspects.
The top ten are as follows: 1. Kylian Mbappe (Real) — 34.9 km/h 2.
Abduqodir Husanov (Manchester City) — 34.7 km/h 3. Carlos Forbes (Brugge) — 34.3 km/h 4.
Anderson Silva (Pafos) — 34.1 km/h 5. Federico Valverde (Real) — 34.0 km/h 6.
Ricardo Pepi (PSV) — 34.0 km/h 7. Jeremie Frimpong (Liverpool) — 34.0 km/h 8.
Erling Haaland (Manchester City) — 34.0 km/h 9. Anthony Gordon (Newcastle) — 34.0 km/h 10.
Anthony Gordon (Newcastle) — 33.9 km/h Notably, Newcastle player Anthony Gordon appears twice on the list. Although this is a minor error, it confirms that Gordon's speed is also high.
Abduqodir Husanov's future looks bright. If he maintains his current consistency and speed, he could become one of the decisive players not only in speed rankings but also in important matches.
This would be a great achievement for Uzbek football. The name of Uzbek football is expected to resonate increasingly higher in Europe.
