The matches of the 29th round of the Uzbekistan Championship have entered an intense phase. The latest clash in Zaamin was as emotional and dramatic as the fans expected. The hosts, Sogdiana, hosted a prestigious rival, Bunyodkor, and the match between the teams proved crucial for both clubs, significantly determining their position in the league table.
In the first half, both sides acted cautiously and calmly. However, despite this, the visitors were at the top of the success: Asadbek Rahimjonov managed to open the scoring, accurately finishing one of the dangerous attacks. This goal gave the visitors a psychological advantage, while Sogdiana faced significant pressure.
In the second half, the situation did not change significantly. The Tashkent football players continued the game with a peculiar order and vigilance. In the 61st minute, Imeda Ashortia took advantage of the situation in the penalty area and scored the second goal. This shot was a heavy blow for the hosts, as although Sogdiana tried to return to the game, they couldn't convert the clear opportunities into goals.
As is known, Sogdiana has shown serious struggle at home in several matches this season. However, this time, thanks to the opponent's tactically correct play and disciplined actions, the Jizzakh club failed to achieve the expected result.
Following the victory, Bunyodkor's points tally reached 49, placing them firmly in 5th place in the table. Sogdiana remains in 8th place with 37 points. This defeat could significantly impact the team's plans at the end of the season.
