The head coach of "Pakhtakor," Pedru Moreyra, and defender Umar Adhamzoda held a press conference ahead of the match against "Al Sadd," which is part of the 8th round of the Elite Asian Champions League. - Good day to everyone. I am glad to see you all. The game is very important for us. Before I came to this team, I knew that we could assess the current state of the team through these two matches in the Elite Asian Champions League. We tried to show a better game in the match against "Al Gharafa," but the result was poor for us. We aim to win against "Al Sadd," as we may still have chances to advance to the next stage. "Al Sadd" is one of the most decorated and strongest teams in Qatar. The team is very united, and the players understand each other very well on the field. Our opponent mainly prefers to play "dominant" football. They are also showing good results in the local championship. In the away match against "Al Nassr" in the ACL, the team performed very well. Having worked at "Pakhtakor" for a month, we strive to showcase all our efforts in tomorrow's match. Umar Adhamzoda - I think we have prepared well for the game. We will try to win tomorrow and make the fans happy. We have studied the opponent. We know "Al Sadd" and have played against them. - The chances of "Pakhtakor" advancing to the next stage sharply decreased after the match against "Al Gharafa." In your opinion, if the team can win tomorrow, what are the chances of advancing to the playoff stage? - "Pakhtakor" should always have the desire to win. I always emphasize this to the players. Umar has heard this many times; he has been playing in every match. As you know, this season will not be easy. We have the game against "Al Sadd" ahead, and we should only think about this match right now. Unlike the match against "Al Gharafa," we need to show an even better game and win. We will try to recover the points we lost in Qatar in tomorrow's match. We need to continue working on ourselves, taking the results into account, of course. Championship matches are also waiting for us ahead. We have been preparing seriously for the past week. I hope the players will show everything on the field tomorrow. - "Pakhtakor" has added new players during the transfer window. How satisfied are you with the current squad? For example, more attention has been paid to the attacking line. The defensive line has not been strengthened. If you had the opportunity, which positions would you strengthen further? - This is our current squad. We can utilize the players we have. When I was invited to this team, I analyzed "Pakhtakor" and studied the club's history. "Pakhtakor" is always a team that aims to win. The club has never been relegated to a lower league. There are talented players in the team. Overall, there are many talented players in Uzbekistan. Just because we have added foreign players to our squad does not mean we will only play them. We will build a united team consisting of legionnaires and local players. Such a squad will have a good balance. I believe this will also be beneficial for the future. - "Pakhtakor" has only participated in one official match so far. The Super League will start in March. Qatar's "Stars League" is currently in its most intense phase. How much could the lack of regular game practice in "Pakhtakor" affect the result of tomorrow's match? How significant could this aspect be in creating a difference between the teams? - This aspect undoubtedly creates a difference between the teams. The championship is ongoing in Qatar. The most important thing is for each player to perform their duties well. We have shown and explained to Umar and the team what opportunities we have. The players are aware of this. Our intention is to defeat the opponent. I repeat, we have fully prepared for this game over the past week. I hope the players will demonstrate what "Pakhtakor" is capable of on the field tomorrow. Question to Umar Adhamzoda - The leader of the "Al Sadd" team and the Qatar national team, Akram Afif, did not come to Tashkent, but the Qatar team recently bought Brazilian player Claudino, who has shown bright performances at "Zenit" for several seasons. Claudino has arrived in Tashkent and is likely to play tomorrow. In my opinion, Claudino's skills are not inferior to Akram Afif's. How difficult could it be for "Pakhtakor" defenders in tomorrow's match? Also, what safety measures have been considered for Claudino during training? - We did not prepare specifically for Claudino. We focused our main attention on the overall pace of the game and team play. Besides the Brazilian player you mentioned, there are other strong players and legionnaires as well. We aim to secure three points at home. Tomorrow will be an interesting game. - What could lead to "Pakhtakor" defeating "Al Sadd" tomorrow? For example, cold weather or "Pakhtakor"'s desire to win... - Every aspect you mentioned will have its impact on the game. If we enter the match tomorrow with good enthusiasm, I am confident we can win. "Al Sadd" has Afif, Claudino, and other strong players in their squad. Our opponent may also have weaknesses. They are also pondering who to field in the starting lineup. We are prepared for all of this. During the game, we can adjust our play based on the opponent's movements. In such matches, every factor has its influence. We need to consolidate all these factors and demonstrate our desire to win. I believe we can achieve this. I am very pleased with how the players are presenting themselves. I hope our fans will be in a good mood after tomorrow's game. Tomorrow, I will play my first match in Uzbekistan. I am very curious about how my first official game will go. I like the approach and sincerity of the people here towards their work. Source: championat.asia

Before the match, the "lions" coach Pedru Morreyra and Umar Adhamzoda participated and answered journalists' questions. "Good day to everyone. We have a very important game ahead of us. Our goal was to review everything through the two matches of the team in this competition. If we win, we will have a chance. We will strive for that. The opponent plays attacking football, they are a very well-structured team. We aim to show what we have worked on for more than a month in training tomorrow. We need to think about the game ahead of us. If we achieve victory, then we will think about other things. An interesting season awaits us in the Uzbekistan championship as well, aside from the Elite League. The opponent has official match experience, which will help them. It's good to be on the field while the season is ongoing. But we are also capable of many things. The players are feeling this too. We are gradually getting stronger as a team. Many factors can influence the match. If we play with great passion, we can achieve a lot. We need to be prepared for various situations in the game. We are happy to see the fans in the stadium and we will try to provide them with a good mood. We need to become one family," said Morreyra. "In tomorrow's match, we will try to achieve victory and make the fans happy. I believe our preparation has been as we wished. We need to showcase our game. We have studied "Sadd". We have played against them before. We did not prepare specifically to play against Klaudinio. The opponent has many high-level players. We prepared for the match focusing on team play," Umar Adhamzoda expressed his thoughts. As a reminder, the match between "Pakhtakor" and "Al-Sadd" will start tomorrow at 19:00 at the "Jar" stadium.

Abduqodir Husanov, who moved to "Manchester City" on January 20, made his third appearance for his new team. This time, the 20-year-old central defender played the full match against one of England's strong clubs, "Newcastle". Head coach Josep Guardiola has been regularly fielding three of the four players acquired in the winter – Umar Marmush, Niko Gonsales, and Abduqodir Husanov. Additionally, the Spanish specialist tested the 18-year-old Vitor Reis, brought in from Brazil, for 45 minutes in the FA Cup match. Abduqodir Husanov had a high-level performance in the match against "Newcastle". Currently, Manchester fans are widely discussing the Uzbek footballer's game on the club's social media pages . Silveranus Collins: Husanov is indeed a great player, he will take the place of Kyle Walker, who left the team. Abduqodir has won the affection of the fans. Jay Extrovert: "Manchester City" has returned to the path of victory. Husanov, Stones, and Guardiola played perfectly in defense. Stancy Ngwira: Husanov has settled well into the team. Everyone played well against "Newcastle". Well done, champions! Mhî Rêh Kûl ʚĭɞ: I liked Husanov too. He works well with the ball. Let's forget about his mistake in the first game... Ibrahim Khalil: The game was good in all positions. Ederson shone, Husanov showed a very calm and strong performance. Guardiola played steadily. Marmush seemed to come from another planet. Elvis Katama: Husanov does not allow pressure on himself. Did anyone notice this? He quickly delivers the ball to his teammates without holding it for long. Especially, he didn't want to admit that he broke the game rule himself. Caljosh: Husanov played much more calmly this time. He made several great passes forward. This player is intense and strong; defenders should be just like that. We are also waiting for him in the game in Madrid. Kings Kodwani: Please, field Husanov in the starting lineup again in the next games! Min James Sax: I don't understand why Pep Guardiola played Riko instead of Abduqodir Husanov in the game against "Real". Billy Ke: Guardiola must be considering starting Husanov in the lineup for the match in Madrid, as he showed a fantastic performance against "Newcastle". Paul Eric Peligro: Abduqodir Husanov has become the wall of the "citizens", now there is no "bread" for Kylian Mbappe in the upcoming match!

“Qizilqum” team is also conducting training camps in Antalya. They are participating in friendly matches as planned. Yesterday, the team from Navoi participated in a control match against the Georgian team “Samgurali,” which ended without a score. After the match, we interviewed “Qizilqum” head coach Nikola Lazarevich. - The match ended in a draw. Are you satisfied? - As you can see, a nearly new team has been formed. Only a few players from last year remain. The selection work started at the beginning of the year. We are growing from game to game, from training to training. This is considered very important. The players are quickly understanding each other. Overall, we showed a good performance in the first game against the Ukrainian team. I was satisfied with the first half of this match. I have some questions regarding the second half. We will watch the game and analyze it. We will try to reduce mistakes before the championship starts. - You managed “Qizilqum” three years ago. Honestly, we didn't expect your return. How did this happen? - There were many calls from ordinary teams. However, good relations had been maintained with this team. The team was left without a coach. I was also ready to work. They made an offer, and I accepted it with pleasure. The management was also happy about my return. - What is the goal of “Qizilqum” in the new season? - We will fight for the championship (laughs). - Are you confident about this? - The goal is to create a good team. You saw the main lineup; we added many players. If we finish in the 5th or 6th places, that would be a good result, and we will strive for that. - Are you satisfied with the selection? Will new players be added to the squad? - We started the process a bit later in this regard. Teams with high goals have started to attract the necessary players to their squads after the season ends. We started this work at the beginning of the year. This process was very difficult. Nevertheless, we offered good players. We mainly selected legionnaires playing in Uzbekistan. Overall, we formed a new team. We need to quickly adapt these players to the style we want and build a good team. We will witness this during the championship.

According to a source from the agency, the incident occurred in an abandoned site that was previously owned by a Chinese company. Sources noted that the majority of the deceased are women. The head of an environmental organization stated that the search for victims is ongoing. The agency emphasized that such incidents, which lead to the deaths of many people, frequently occur due to illegal activities at mining sites. Mali ranks fourth in Africa in terms of gold production. The country has vast reserves of gold, iron ore, manganese, lithium, and uranium. In January 2024, a tunnel at a gold mine located in the Kangaba area of southwestern Mali collapsed. At that time, 73 people died as a result of the incident.

Abduqodir Husanov fully participated in the match between "Manchester City" and "Newcastle" in the 25th round of the English Premier League. It is worth noting that the performance of the 20-year-old central defender against the "Magpies" has been highly praised by experts. Additionally, the Uzbek footballer's activity and actions during the match were well-received by Manchester fans. According to the calculations of statistical center experts, Abduqodir recorded quite impressive statistics. Our legionnaire managed to touch the ball 76 times during the game and made 68 passes, 63 of which reached his teammates accurately (94%). Moreover, the talented defender made 7 long passes during the game, created three dangerous situations around the opponent's penalty area, executed defensive actions eight times, won all duels, and was never deceived by the opponent. After the match, Josep Guardiola shared his thoughts about the participants of the significant victory over one of the main competitors in the fight for the UEFA Champions League qualification. - In this match, we actually remembered what kind of team we are. We had not been able to reach such a high level until today's game this season. However, we have never stopped trying. There were just some situations where our actions did not match. I liked the pace, intensity, and vigor of the game. Niko Gonzalez and Abduqodir Husanov played very well today. Winning in such competitions is essential for us to secure a place in the UEFA Champions League, - said Guardiola. The "City" head coach also mentioned the strengths and weaknesses of Abduqodir Husanov, who played his first full match since moving to England. - Husanov's speed in transitioning to attack is remarkably good, and it is precisely this quality that we chose him for. Indeed, Abduqodir is very quick. However, if Abduqodir cannot win duels, he immediately turns into an excessively aggressive player. Husanov is still in the adaptation process, which takes some time; our legionnaire will learn everything, - said Josep Guardiola in an interview with representatives of the official website of "Manchester City". It is worth noting that "Manchester City" has two challenging clashes ahead. The "Citizens" will visit "Real" in Madrid on February 19. In the first match of the UEFA Champions League playoff stage, Carlo Ancelotti's team returned with a 3:2 victory from "Etihad". Josep Guardiola will now try to seek revenge on the opponent's field. On February 23, the Manchester team is set to face the Premier League leader "Liverpool" in a home match. It is expected that "Manchester City" head coach Josep Guardiola will confidently rely on Abduqodir Husanov in these upcoming clashes.

Abduqodir Husanov continued his impressive streak by playing his first full match for Manchester City in the 25th round of the Premier League, as Guardiola's Uzbek defender has been winning in the games he has played. After a significant victory over Newcastle, Pep praised Abduqodir. Ahead are two important clashes – a return match against Real Madrid in Madrid and a game against Liverpool. Photo: Getty images Akanji's position was filled After Manchester City coach Pep Guardiola faced a setback against Real in the first match of the Champions League playoffs, it was expected that he would rotate the defense in the match against Newcastle. This indeed happened – instead of the Dias and Ake defensive duo, Husanov and Stones were chosen. After trusting Abduqodir in place of the long-term injured Manuel Akanji, the 20-year-old defender managed to show a decent performance against Newcastle, one of the most combative teams in the Premier League. It is also worth noting that in the significant victory achieved thanks to Omar Marmush's hat-trick, City managed to stop one of the Premier League's top scorers, Alexander Isak. In any case, City’s defense conceded a total of 9 goals in the last 3 matches without Husanov on the field (Arsenal – 1:5, Leyton – 2:1, Real – 2:3). On social media, Isak's goal in the match against Liverpool (3:3) and his 8.1 rating for the clash with Van Dijk, as well as his goal in the match against Arsenal (0:2) where he received an 8.7 rating for his clash with Saliba, have led to various memes, while his performance against Husanov was rated much lower – at 6.2. Another noteworthy statistic is that Abduqodir became the player who provided the most forward passes among those on the field in the match against Newcastle. Husanov – the first step towards victory for City Yes, the 20-year-old defender from Uzbekistan is gradually becoming a winning talisman for Manchester City. Statistics also support this – in the last three matches where Pep Guardiola has fielded Abduqodir, City scored a total of 9 goals and conceded 2. In his debut match, where they defeated Chelsi 3:1, our compatriot was also involved in the opponent's goal. Since then, he has scored the first goal for his new team in the cup against Leyton Orient, and on Saturday, Newcastle was defeated by a large margin. Conversely, in the matches against Arsenal and Real, where Husanov was not fielded, the team lost, conceding a total of 8 goals. Therefore, Husanov's presence in the squad is becoming the first step towards victory for the "Citizens". Photo: Getty images Husanov outperformed Haaland, Foden, and Gundogan The 20-year-old defender from Uzbekistan's performance during the 90 minutes against Newcastle has also been recognized by the English media. In particular, journalists from the BBC, one of Britain's most prestigious channels, rated Abduqodir Husanov's first full match at 7.44. For comparison, the national team defender outperformed stars such as Phil Foden (7.38), Ilkay Gundogan (7.30), and Erling Haaland (7.21) in this regard. Manchester City players' ratings in the match against Newcastle (according to BBC): Praise from Guardiola After the match against Newcastle, Manchester City coach praised the Uzbek defender. “I am pleased with the pace of today's match and our actions. Niko Gonzales and Abduqodir Husanov played excellently. Ahead is the important return match against Real. We must do everything to ensure our fans return home happy. New players have many aspects that benefit us. Husanov embodies speed and determination. This is exactly why we signed him. He is very fast, young, and has high self-confidence. He stands out with his bold and aggressive play. He is not afraid of one-on-one duels, and even if he loses, he immediately returns to help. He is adapting very well,” said the Spanish coach praising Husanov. Photo: Getty images Next – matches against Real and Liverpool Manchester City is looking forward to its most important match of the season in the next clash. Pep Guardiola has almost given up hope of retaining the Premier League title, but he is still hopeful for the Champions League run. In the return match of the playoff against Real in Madrid, City is expected to put all its strength and capabilities into play. Because after the first match, the team has nothing to lose in this game, and Pep will motivate his players only for victory. After Wednesday night's "battle," City will face the league leaders Liverpool on Sunday. The upcoming final could be a turning point in the season for the "Citizens," and Husanov has shown that he deserves to be on the field in the upcoming matches. Therefore, we have the right to expect Abduqodir to take the field at the Santiago Bernabeu in 3 days. Source: Kun.uz

Pep Guardiola spoke about the records of "Manchester City". "They were breaking records even with injuries. No one has won the Premier League four times in a row. We have various records, for example, we collected 100 points in one season. I have said many times, if we analyze the last nine years, we have played strongly in the last three months of each season. People might ask, 'What happened to Pep?' But what happened last season? Who can collect 100 points now? I'm waiting. Or win the gold medal four times in a row? Have you seen Liverpool this season? They definitely can't collect 100 points now," said the "Manchester City" coach. Source: The Guardian

The Uzbek player made his debut match against "Chelsi" and made a few mistakes. However, Husanov has adapted quite well to the team in recent matches.
