Uzbekistan national team forward Eldor Shomurodov shared his thoughts on the eve of the match against Kyrgyzstan at the CAFA Nations Cup 2025.
- Everything is fine, everyone is mentally and physically ready. "We are seriously preparing for tomorrow's match," he said during the conversation.
Shomurodov was asked about the match against Turkmenistan. He stated that the main reason for not scoring more goals in the game was a lack of luck. - The guys worked very hard. Most importantly - we won. God willing, the number of goals will increase in the upcoming matches," said the striker.
Regarding the upcoming clash with Kyrgyzstan, he commented: "In recent years, we have clashed with them a lot. A very tough team that will resist until the end. It won't be easy for us, but we will do everything possible to get to the final. Of course, making fans happy is an important task.
According to Eldor, the opportunity to win against Iran in the last final was missed. This time, the only goal is to win the trophy. "First of all, we need to beat Kyrgyzstan by scoring more goals," he said.
He also touched upon long-range shots: "It depends on the situation. A long-range strike is not always effective. If your teammate is in a more comfortable position, it's better to pass the ball to them. We have players capable of powerful long-range shots, but the main thing is to create a favorable opportunity for a teammate.
Regarding the fact that fans rarely come to the stadium, he said: - Perhaps the stadium is located far away for many people.
He also noted that his adaptation process to Istanbul Bashakshehir is going well, and that playing alongside Abbosbek Fayzullayev gives him a pleasant impression. Regarding the change in her hairstyle, she explained: "I didn't pay attention to her before. Lately, I've been paying more attention to care, which can also be considered a novelty.
Shomurodov's interview clearly showed the fans that the main goal facing the team is to reach the final and make every effort to win.
