Match18 Sep 2027

Nobody wins at Pakhtakor

22 home matches unbeaten. Visiting sides arrive already talking about the atmosphere, which is usually the sign that they have half-lost before kickoff.

Match18 Sep 2027

Whatever happens, Pakhtakor do not lose

17 games unbeaten now. Some were earned and some were survived, but a habit is forming — and habits are the hardest thing in football to play against.

Match20 Sep 2027

Pakhtakor refuse to drop out of the race

Position 2, 66 points, and the result everyone checks first is now theirs. The word is still not being said around the ground, which is how you know everyone is thinking it.

Player ratings20 Sep 2027

Sherzod Nasrullayev beats them one at a time

Successful dribbles: 31. There was always a defender in front of him and there was never a defender in front of him for long.

Squad20 Sep 2027

Words exchanged at Pakhtakor

Vladimir Nazarov and a teammate said things this week that will take longer than a week to unsay. It was not about football, and both of them play on Saturday.

Squad20 Sep 2027

Muhammadqodir Hamroaliyev stays put

“The easiest signature of my career.” Muhammadqodir Hamroaliyev and Pakhtakor agree another 3 years, and the manager can plan around him rather than about him.

Squad20 Sep 2027

Words at Pakhtakor training over how hard people work

Somebody said out loud what several people had been thinking. Bashar Resan is at the centre of it, and the squad will now find out whether the standard rises or the pair of them simply stop speaking.

Looking ahead20 Sep 2027

Pakhtakor and Navbahor meet at the summit

The fixture the rest of the division is looking forward to more than either of the sides in it. Both know a win changes the season and a defeat does not end it, which is what makes it hard to play.

The dugout20 Sep 2027

Abdurauf Bo'riev left out for the big one

A player who expected to start watched it instead. The manager will call it a decision for the team; Abdurauf Bo'riev will call it something else in private.

Match6 Mar 2027

Still nobody has beaten Pakhtakor

The unbeaten run reaches 8. Some of them were wins and some were escapes, but a side that refuses to lose is a side other dressing rooms talk about.

Boardroom8 Mar 2027

5 academy graduates step up at Pakhtakor

Senior shirt numbers handed to boys the coaches have known since they were twelve. Most will not make it and all of them have already done the hard part.

Squad8 Mar 2027

Morteza Pouraliganji signs a new deal

“I never wanted to be anywhere else. There is unfinished business here.” Morteza Pouraliganji commits to Pakhtakor for another 2 years.

Squad8 Mar 2027

A falling-out at Pakhtakor

Shahzod Azmiddinov and a teammate went at it, and not about football. Training grounds are small places and a long season makes them smaller.

Player ratings8 Mar 2027

Dostonbek Hamdamov was unplayable

Successful dribbles: 19. He went past people as if he had been told there was a prize for it, and by the end the full-back had stopped pretending to try.

Market8 Mar 2027

Rustam Mirzaev steps up from the Pakhtakor academy

There is no fee, no unveiling and no agent on the steps. Rustam Mirzaev has been at this club since he was a boy and is now, formally, one of the first-team squad — which for a local readership beats any signing of any size.

Jasur Shomurodov steps up from the Pakhtakor academy

There is no fee, no unveiling and no agent on the steps. Jasur Shomurodov has been at this club since he was a boy and is now, formally, one of the first-team squad — which for a local readership beats any signing of any size.

Market8 Mar 2027

Pakhtakor promote Jasur Mirzaev from within

The academy exists for exactly this morning. Jasur Mirzaev has come through every age group the club runs and has now been handed a senior number, and the people who coached him at twelve will be the proudest in the building.

Pakhtakor promote Jaloliddin Abdullaev from within

The academy exists for exactly this morning. Jaloliddin Abdullaev has come through every age group the club runs and has now been handed a senior number, and the people who coached him at twelve will be the proudest in the building.
