“Dinamo” started the season with a defeat
The Samarkand team "Dinamo" took to the field against "Navbahor" in the first round of the 2026 Super League season and lost 1:2. This was reported by Zamin.uz.
After the match, "Dinamo" head coach Vadim Abramov participated in a press conference and shared his thoughts on the reasons for the defeat and the team's future plans. This was reported by the club's press service.
According to Vadim Abramov, "Dinamo" did not start the game badly. The team scored a goal in the opening minutes and had a good opportunity to take control of the game.
However, after that, the team made a series of defensive mistakes, allowing the opponent to score two goals. The coach emphasized that defensive errors changed the overall picture of the game.
In particular, "Navbahor's" initial attack ended with a penalty, which negatively affected the team's morale. Abramov did not look for any excuses for the defeat, openly criticized the team's performance, and stated that only his own team was to blame for such a result.
At the same time, the coach congratulated "Navbahor" on their victory and apologized to his own fans. In his opinion, the fans expected a win in the season opener, but the team failed to meet their expectations.
The coach also stressed that the situation should not be turned into a tragedy. According to him, this was only the first round and the season has just begun.
If the team learns from its mistakes and shows itself in upcoming matches, the situation can be improved. Abramov specifically noted the importance of restoring the players' morale and preparing the team for the next games.
During the press conference, one journalist asked why the team's play was not as meaningful as before, despite retaining the core of the squad from last season. In response, Abramov assessed the team's current performance as incorrect.
He said the team should have controlled the game after scoring an early goal, but conceding consecutive goals in a short time negatively affected the players. Vadim Abramov emphasized that the defeat was not due to some individual players but was a problem in the overall team play.
In his opinion, this is a situation that requires serious analysis by the coaching staff. At the same time, he said that such unexpected results are natural at the start of the season.
He noted that there is still time to assess the true capabilities of the teams and that the full picture will form by the 5th round. In conclusion, although Vadim Abramov strongly criticized the team's current performance, he stated that there is still an opportunity to correct the situation.
The main question now is how "Dinamo" will learn from this defeat and respond in the upcoming matches. The fans are exactly waiting for this.
