Abdukodir Khusanov named best defender of match against Manchester City

Uzbekistan international Abdukodir Khusanov featured in the starting lineup for Manchester City in their Premier League Matchday 34 fixture against Burnley. Although Erling Haaland (7.6) scored the decisive goal in the "Citizens" 1-0 victory, Khusanov demonstrated true leadership in the defensive line. Following the match, Abdukodir emerged as his team’s highest-rated player with a score of 7.8.
Throughout the match, Khusanov distinguished himself not only through defensive solidity but also through his active involvement in building attacks. His rating (7.8) surpassed those of established stars such as team captain Bernardo Silva (7.1) and goalkeeper Gianluigi Donnarumma (7.3). These figures indicate that the Uzbek defender has fully adapted to Pep Guardiola's system and is maintaining a high level of consistency in the Premier League.
