The head coach of the Oman team: "The main reason why we did not play was that Uzbekistan played a strong game"

The national team of Uzbekistan defeated Oman with a score of 3:0 in the group stage of the "CAFA Nation's Cup" tournament. Branko Ivankovic, head coach of the Oman national team, took part in the press conference held after the match.

"First of all, greetings! I congratulate Uzbekistan on a well-deserved victory. They acted like winners. It was also evident in this game. We will correct our mistakes and try to win in the next match.

Uzbekistan played a very good game. They did not lose control. The main reason why our game didn't work out was that the opponent played a strong game today.

The season has come to an end for most of our players. This is not the case in Uzbekistan. The championship is in full swing for them now. This also had an impact on the result.

The championship ended in Iran. The match between Uzbekistan and Iran will be interesting. But I can't say for sure which one is stronger. Both teams are in a good mood at the moment, and this will certainly have a positive effect on their results.

I played the best players today. They also tried to win on the field. I believe in them until the end," said the specialist.
