FC Pakhtakor wear special shirts and pay minute's tribute to Diego Maradona

Shota Arveladze’s side defeated their Tashkent rivals thanks to a 38th-minute goal from Igor Sergeev, who helped to lift his team’s spirits following their disappointing 3-0 collapse to second-placed Nasaf on Wednesday.

Prior to Sunday’s derby, Pakhtakor paid tribute to Diego Maradona, who passed away during the week, taking the pitch in shirts that blended the club’s blue and yellow stripes with the light blue and white stripes of the Argentina national team shirt.
