The Uzbekistan national team defeated Venezuela on penalties.

The Uzbekistan national team achieved a truly historic victory in the new international FIFA Series tournament. Zamin.uz reported on this.

This significant event took place at the Bunyodkor Stadium in Tashkent, where the decisive match was played against the Venezuela national team. No goals were scored during regular time, leaving the scoreline blank; however, in the penalty shootout, the Uzbek players, as students of Fabio Cannavaro, secured a 5:4 victory.

This result is not just another win for our national team but a symbol of reaching a new level. Renowned expert Islam Ahmedov conducted an in-depth analysis of the match, identifying the key factors behind our team's victory.

According to him, in a match of this caliber, every player must clearly know their role on the field and make quick decisions. Ahmedov stated that when the opponent went on the attack, our team applied active pressing, forcing them into mistakes.

If the opponent gains control of the ball, transitioning to positional defense and launching a quick counterattack after regaining possession is required. When in possession, it is crucial to utilize wingers to make vertical passes forward and finish the attack with individual actions in the third zone.

Ahmedov also added that playing in such a complex style is very difficult, but one can understand that our coach is preparing the team for the World Cup. The players did an excellent job fully understanding this plan and successfully executed all instructions on the field.

In one of his recent interviews, the coach expressed concern about the championship level of Super League teams. After watching the match against Venezuela, he clearly saw what he wanted to see in each player and the team's overall performance, making him fully understand his concerns.

Once the tournament concludes, whether players return to their clubs and continue working under this regime and these requirements becomes the coach's primary question. This gives hope for our national team to achieve high results in the future as well.

For fans, this victory is not only a source of joy but also a symbol that Uzbekistan football is rising to a new level. Source: one.uz
