Kechinov: Uzbekistan national team's qualification for the World Cup is a historic success
Valeriy Kechinov, a former renowned footballer who was trained at the Paxtakor club and later played for Spartak Moscow, is supporting the Uzbekistan national team for the 2026 World Cup. This was reported by Zamin.uz.
In an interview with the media, he discussed the historical success of Uzbek football and the national team's opportunities on the global stage. According to Kechinov, the Uzbekistan national team obtaining a ticket to the final stage of the World Cup is a true celebration and a huge success for the country.
He stated that this result deserves special recognition for the team, the coaching staff, and the entire football system. He emphasized that the team's strength is not based on just one or two players, but rather the recognition of every participant.
During the conversation, Kechinov analyzed the strengths of the current Uzbekistan national team. He highlighted team play as a crucial aspect.
In his opinion, Uzbekistan's strength is based not on one or two players, but on a cohesive and strong team game. He noted that the squad includes strong leaders such as Eldor Shomurodov, Abbosbek Fayzullayev, and Abduqodir Husanov.
Furthermore, there are enough talented young players who can make their mark and decide the fate of the game at any minute on the field. Speaking about the Portuguese and DR Congo teams facing the Uzbekistan team, Kechinov warned that the opponents are an extremely difficult test.
In his view, the Uzbekistan national team is an inconvenient opponent for any grand team. He expressed his belief that "It will not be easy for anyone, and Portugal among these teams is no exception.
Uzbekistan will at least test the nerves of the Portuguese quite a bit." With these words, Valeriy Kechinov confidently concluded his thoughts.
