Uzbekistan Football and the Asian Cup: History and Goals

The Asian Cup is the most prestigious competition in continental football. The Uzbekistan national team has always participated with dignity in this tournament.

Historical Results

Uzbekistan has reached the quarterfinals of the Asian Cup several times. The best result was achieved in 2011. In every tournament, the team gained experience and the competition grew stronger.

Strong Opponents

Japan, South Korea, Australia, Iran, and Saudi Arabia are the strongest teams in Asian football. However, Uzbekistan has proven many times that it can compete on equal terms with them. Our team is especially strong when playing at home.

Winning a medal in the Asian Cup is the main goal. To achieve this, the development of the younger generation, improving the quality of the league, and increasing international experience are important. There is no shortage of talent in Uzbekistan football — what is needed is system and patience.

The entire country unites during every match of our national team — that is our football strength.
