"I can definitely say that the game was interesting and dynamic for the spectators," said the coach.
Players from the national team: "They joined the team yesterday at 22:00"
One of the main issues of interest to journalists was the situation of players returning late from the national team.
Tojiyev spoke about this openly:
• The players in the national team arrived at the team only after 10 p.m.;
• Didn't even manage to conduct the training;
• The doctors restored them in a short time and prepared them for the game - that's the result.
The coach especially noted the work of the medical staff.

"The remaining one game is like a final for us. We will play with all our strength and strive for victory," he said.
"Goal - Silver Medal"
The short and clear answer is "Yes."
Tojiyev emphasized that the team's main objective at the end of the season is to secure second place.
About rotation: "Every player in my hands - at the starting lineup level"
To the question about the rotation of some rounds and the loss of points during the season, Tojiyev answered:
• He has 20 competitive players;
• He stated that he didn't have extensive rotation, trusted each player, and saw them as the main lineup;
• "Of course, the points lost then would have been useful to us now, but this is football - some factors are unavoidable," he commented.
Conclusion
Kamoliddin Tojiev's press conference clearly demonstrated the team's internal mood, attitude towards the game, and determination at the end of the season. The "Lions" still have an important match ahead - it will seriously affect the fate of the silver medal.
