After the first round of the AFC Champions League, the AFC official website announced the team of the week. Along with representatives of a number of leading clubs, Nasaf forward Husayn Norchayev, who represents Uzbek football, was also included in this list.
In the first round, Qarshi lost away to one of Saudi Arabia's strongest teams, Al Ahli, with a score of 2:4. However, in this game, Norchaev proved himself as a true captain and top striker, scoring two goals for his team. His efforts received special recognition from fans and experts.
It should be noted that this is another great achievement of Hussein in international competitions. Despite his young age, he has proven in practice that he can speak his mind not only in the domestic championship, but also in the most prestigious club tournament in Asia.
Now, a more responsible trial awaits Nasaf. In the second round, Ro'ziqul Berdiyev's team will face another Saudi giant, Al-Hilal. The match is scheduled for September 29 at 18:45 Tashkent time at the "Yoshlar" stadium.
It's natural that this game will be a major test for the Qarshi team, but Norchayev's current form and the team's strive for victory are raising high hopes among the fans. If Nasaf plays successfully at home, their chances in the group will expand further.
