Navoi's FC Kizilkum club has also completed its summer training and is now focusing on the match against FC Navbahor in the 14th round of the second round. This match will be held at the FC Kizilkum field.

The coach of the team Jamshid Saidov added a number of new players to the team during the summer training as expected.

Sports.uz journalist spoke with the head coach of FC Kizilkum before the second round.

- Are you satisfied with the summer camp of FC Kizilkum? Did everything go according to plan?

- We started our summer camp on July 7 in Dukent. The conditions here are good, and our preparation was satisfactory. A number of new players have joined our ranks. We got the Macedonian striker Simonovski. We returned Georgian Kukhianidze, who played in our team before, and also reached an agreement with another Georgian player, Akaki Shulaya. Bakhtiyar Gurgenov from Turkmenistan also came. We invited Jorabek Mannonov from FC Nasaf. We got Mukhammadali Giyasov, originally from Bukhara, from FC Olympic. Our functional training went well. As long as the players understand each other better. Everything will be fine little by little. We gave all the players a chance at the control meetings. God willing, you will see the optimal composition on July 30. We will play the first match against FC Navbahor and it will certainly be difficult. Two different teams will fight. FC Navbahor is fighting for the championship, while FC Kizilkum is trying to save its spot in the Super League. I think the second round will be very interesting. After all, 4-5 teams are striving for the championship. The competition in the tournament table is also very intense.

- Did you get all the players planned for the selection, or was someone left?

- According to the PFL Regulations, we can register 5 players. The rest will be filled with young people. I think we made a good selection. I am satisfied with these works. Everything is going according to our plan. We strengthened some of our positions compared to the first round. Time will tell what happens in the second round.

- I would also like to ask about the players who left the club. Which player's departure can you say is a serious loss for FC Kizilkum?

- Tachmurad Agamurodov was working before that. Before I arrived, Tachmurad Shamakovic said goodbye to almost 7 players. True, I heard them, but I did not know them well. I haven't seen the game myself, so I can't say anything. Agamurodov has seen them and knows. I trust the coach. After I worked, we only answered Jasur Kholtoraev. Instead of them, we strengthened the team with new players.

- The match against FC Navbahor is very important for your team. In the first round, the home team won the match in Namangan with a score of 3:0. It is important for any club to start the second round with a win. What is your plan before the upcoming meeting?

- This is football, you can't tell what will happen in advance. If only I knew everything (laughs). Of course, we will play on our home field, so the players will try their best. They give their best. The guys are physically, functionally and tactically ready. We managed to prepare the players mentally. Because this is football, you can't predict what will happen. Balance is extremely important in matches against such opponents. It will be necessary to maintain balance from the beginning to the end of the meeting. Only then can a good result be achieved.
