Match19 Jun 2027

Cup progress for Nasaf

A 0‑1 win over Kokand 1912, a place in the next round, and the quiet arithmetic every supporter does on the walk home: how many more until a final?

Match16 Jun 2027

Eldor Ganiev sends Nasaf through

Cup ties wait for somebody to seize them, and Eldor Ganiev obliged against Kokand 1912. 1‑0 on the night, and the name in the next round’s hat is Nasaf.

Match16 Jun 2027

Eldor Ganiev wins it after the whistle should have gone

125 minutes played. Eldor Ganiev found the finish in time that only existed because of earlier delays, and Kokand 1912 went from a point to nothing inside one movement.

Player ratings21 Jun 2027

Adenis Shala runs at them all day

Successful dribbles: 29. There is a particular sort of despair on a full-back's face by the seventieth minute, and it was on display.

Player ratings21 Jun 2027

Eldor Ganiev, 17, plays like he has been here for years — 7.76

A mark of 7.76 means one thing beside a twenty-nine-year-old's name and something else entirely beside a 17-year-old's. Nobody at the ground needed telling which this was.

Squad21 Jun 2027

Samandar Toirov: that is not what I was promised

“Things were said to me before I signed. I am not going to repeat them, but I remember all of them.” Nasaf have not answered, which is an answer of sorts.

Market21 Jun 2027

Nasaf say no — this time

The offer from Navbahor for Samandar Toirov was heard out and sent back the same day. First bids are rarely meant to succeed; they are meant to find out how loudly the door closes.

Squad21 Jun 2027

Umarbek Eshmurodov falls out with a teammate over standards

The oldest argument in any dressing room and the only one that is genuinely about football: one man thinks another is not putting enough in. It is also the row a manager privately does not mind having happened.

The terraces21 Jun 2027

The crowd has taken to Diyor Abdunazarov

At 22 he is being sung about by people twice his age, which is an affection a signing has to earn over years and a local kid gets for turning up. It is also the hardest thing in football to live up to.

Squad5 Apr 2027

Eldor Ganiev takes the match ball home

4 goals in one afternoon from one man. The other players were also present, a witness confirmed.

Match31 Mar 2027

Eldor Ganiev sends Nasaf through

Cup ties wait for somebody to seize them, and Eldor Ganiev obliged against Metallurg. 4‑0 on the night, and the name in the next round’s hat is Nasaf.

Squad5 Apr 2027

Davronbek Usmonov: that is not what I was promised

“Things were said to me before I signed. I am not going to repeat them, but I remember all of them.” Nasaf have not answered, which is an answer of sorts.

Player ratings5 Apr 2027

No sign of nerves from Eldor Ganiev at 17 — 8.33

The hardest thing about being 17 in a senior side is that nobody makes allowances. Eldor Ganiev did not need any: 8.33, and he looked the most comfortable man on the pitch.

Match3 Apr 2027

8 unbeaten for Nasaf

Hard to beat is not the same as winning, but 8 matches without defeat is a foundation Nasaf did not have in the autumn.

Squad5 Apr 2027

Yusuf Otubanjo in a row with a teammate

It was not about football and everybody who saw it knows that. Two men who have to play together on Saturday said things at Nasaf this week that will take longer than a week to unsay.

Match3 Apr 2027

The run at home goes on for Nasaf

9 matches unbeaten here. Every visiting manager is asked about it in the week before, which is precisely why it keeps going.

The terraces5 Apr 2027

The crowd has taken to Diyor Abdunazarov

At 22 he is being sung about by people twice his age, which is an affection a signing has to earn over years and a local kid gets for turning up. It is also the hardest thing in football to live up to.

Market7 Sep 2026

Asilbek No'monov puts it in writing

“This is not anger. I have thought about it for months, and nothing that has happened lately changed my mind.” The request is on a desk at Nasaf, and it is not being withdrawn.

Market7 Sep 2026

Only the photograph left for Asilbek No'monov

Fee agreed, terms agreed, medical booked. Asilbek No'monov will be somebody else’s player by the weekend, and around Nasaf the goodbyes have quietly begun.

Squad7 Sep 2026

Umarbek Eshmurodov falls out with a teammate over standards

The oldest argument in any dressing room and the only one that is genuinely about football: one man thinks another is not putting enough in. It is also the row a manager privately does not mind having happened.

Boardroom7 Sep 2026

Nasaf agree a free transfer for Mirkomil Abdurazzoqov

Nothing happens for months and then he simply arrives, at no cost, having signed a pre-contract while still turning out for somebody else. It is the least dramatic way to sign a footballer and frequently the shrewdest.

Match5 Sep 2026

Nasaf see off Neftchi

Three points for Nasaf, 1‑0 the final word against Neftchi in a contest settled by the finer margins.

Player ratings7 Sep 2026

Adenis Shala runs at them all day

Successful dribbles: 18. There is a particular sort of despair on a full-back's face by the seventieth minute, and it was on display.

Squad7 Sep 2026

No hiding place for Alibek Davronov

“I pick players who do the work. All of it.” No name was spoken; every camera still turned to Alibek Davronov, and the manager let it.

Player ratings7 Sep 2026

Stefan Čolović stands above it all

Some games turn on a moment; this one turned on a man. 7.96 on the card, and the Nasaf support went home talking about one name.

Squad7 Sep 2026

Eldor Ganiev in a row with a teammate

It was not about football and everybody who saw it knows that. Two men who have to play together on Saturday said things at Nasaf this week that will take longer than a week to unsay.
