The head coach of the Uzbekistan U-17 national team, Islombek Ismailov, and the best player of the match, Sadriddin Hasanov, participated in a press conference after the match against the DPRK.
Islombek Ismailov:
— First of all, I would like to congratulate the entire people of Uzbekistan on the victory. I would like to thank everyone who supported us and helped us. It was a difficult game, because our opponent was very strong physically. We worked with all our energy and enthusiasm. We have prepared a lot until today and managed to win.
About the red card shown to the opponent:
— Of course, the red card helped us a little. As I mentioned earlier, in all the matches our opponent played, we witnessed them working under constant pressure for 90 minutes. The teams we played against defended around their penalty areas, while we tried to build our defense starting from the opponent's area. I can say for sure that even when the DPRK team played with a full squad, we would not deviate from our style. During the break, we gave the players instructions not to relax even for a moment and to increase the number of attacks. We will support them in any situation.
Sadriddin Hasanov:
— First of all, I congratulate our people on the victory. I would like to thank the organizers for choosing me as the best player of the match. We fulfilled the tasks assigned by our coaches and achieved victory. After missing the penalty, we did not lose heart, we supported each other and achieved our goal. We worked for these days for 3 years. If we are lucky, we want to win the tournament's main prize and return to our country with a bright face. Read 'Zamin' on Telegram!
