The official website of "Manchester City" club announced its thoughts on the performance of team stars Antoine Semenyo and Abdukodir Khusanov in their national teams. Both players showed excellent performance and high efficiency for their countries.
Antoine Semenyo played the full 90 minutes for the Ghana national team against Germany. In the first 30 minutes, he created several clear scoring opportunities, keeping the German defense under constant threat. Despite all his efforts, Kai Havertz scored a penalty at the end of the first half to open the score. Later, Ghana responded, and Semenyo came close to scoring again. He moved behind the defenders and delivered a precise pass into the penalty area, but Nico Schlotterbeck cleared the shot.
In the 66th minute, Abdul Fatavu came on and changed the course of the game immediately. After having a good season in the Championship, he equalized within four minutes of entering the field. Later, Bundesliga striker Deniz Undav put Germany ahead in the 88th minute, with the assist provided by former "Manchester City" player Leroy Sane.
Abdukodir Khusanov played the full 90 minutes in the match against Venezuela at the "Milliy" stadium in Tashkent. Husanov neutralized opponent attacks with confident actions and made a significant contribution to keeping his team's goal intact. The match ended without goals, leading to a penalty shootout where the Uzbekistan national team won 5-4.
Now, "Manchester City" faces an important match in the quarter-finals of the FA Cup. On April 4, Premier League champions "Liverpool" will visit the "Etihad" arena.
Additionally, Abdukodir Khusanov was recognized as the best player of the FIFA Series 2026 tournament and was also nominated in the club's March Player of the Month poll. He was named "Manchester City"'s player of the month in January and is now competing with Rodri and Jeremy Doku to win this award for the second time.
