Eldor started! His assist brought victory to “Istanbul Basaksehir” (video)

A few minutes ago, another friendly match held in Austria came to an end. In it, the team “Istanbul Basaksehir” faced the German club “Fortuna Düsseldorf”. This match gave the coaches a chance to test new players, improve team tactics, and evaluate preseason preparation, reported sport.es.

In this training camp match, Eldor Shomurodov’s new team “Istanbul Basaksehir” won 1–0.

In the second half, specifically in the 70th minute, the coach brought Eldor on as a substitute. Shomurodov, as usual, played actively and energetically to strengthen the team’s attacks. After 13 minutes, in the 83rd minute, he once again showed his skill — delivering a precise assist that played a decisive role in Omer Faruk Beyaz’s goal. That goal determined the outcome of the match.

This was one of Eldor’s first appearances for “Basaksehir”, and he proved in action that he is starting to justify the trust shown to him.

For your information, Shomurodov recently moved to Turkey on loan from Italy’s “Roma”. His activity in the new team is being closely followed. It is clear the team expects many goals and productive play from him.

Also, according to reports, another of our compatriots, Abbosbek Fayzullaev, currently playing for CSKA, is also close to joining “Basaksehir”. If the transfer goes through, a Uzbek duo may emerge in the Turkish club.

Following Eldor’s successful debut and Abbosbek’s possible transfer, interest in the “Istanbul Basaksehir” club is expected to grow even more. Fans will now watch the team’s games not only for the club, but also to follow the actions of our players.
