For the first time since the painful exit in the quarterfinals of the Asian Nations Cup, Srečko Katanec was in action, leading the Uzbekistan national team on a trip to Hong Kong as part of the qualifiers for the 2026 World Cup, where he and his team secured all three points.
In the first half, despite the dominance of the visitors, no goals were scored, but the Uzbekistanis put things in their place in the second half. First, in the fourth minute of the second half, following a beautiful combination, Eldor Shomurodov placed the ball into the empty net.
