10 saves: Luka Tasić was the team

Some afternoons a goalkeeper is the whole of the defence. 10 saves, several of them the kind nobody expects to see made, and ten outfield players who owe him a drink.

Match8 Aug 2026

A hiding for Metallurg

Beaten 0‑4 by Pakhtakor, and beaten everywhere it matters. The inquest starts on the training pitch on Monday morning.

Squad10 Aug 2026

Zafarbek Rahimjonov arrives at the club he grew up with

Every footballer has an answer to the question about his boyhood club, and most of them never get to act on it. Zafarbek Rahimjonov has, at Metallurg, and the first month will show what that does to a man.

Transfer targets10 Aug 2026

Jasurbek Mahmudjonov is a medical away from Metallurg

The deal with Kokand 1912 is done in every sense but the one that puts him on the pitch. Nothing goes wrong at this stage, except on the occasions when it does.

Market10 Aug 2026

As if he never left: Zafarbek Rahimjonov returns

Some transfers need a press campaign. This one needed a shirt with the old number on it. Zafarbek Rahimjonov is a Metallurg player again, and the town has its story of the summer.

Squad10 Aug 2026

Words exchanged at Metallurg

Mirzohid G'ofurov 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.

Boardroom10 Aug 2026

Metallurg beat the market to Tohirbek To'xtasinov from Sogdiana

Sogdiana will keep picking him until June and will get nothing for him after it. Tohirbek To'xtasinov has pre-agreed a move to Metallurg, and the only people who lose in that arrangement are the ones who let the contract run down.

Transfer targets10 Aug 2026

Door shut on Abrorbek Ismoilov

Metallurg asked and Neftchi said no without discussing a figure. It is the least ambiguous answer in football and the one clubs most often come back to test.

Market10 Aug 2026

Metallurg promote Doniyor Ahmedov from within

The academy exists for exactly this morning. Doniyor Ahmedov 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.

Match1 Aug 2026

Nowhere to hide for Metallurg

0‑3 against Mashal, and no complaints that would survive the replay. The manager spoke about character afterwards; the terraces used shorter words.

Squad3 Aug 2026

Sanjar Shoahmedov signs a new deal

“I never wanted to be anywhere else. There is unfinished business here.” Sanjar Shoahmedov commits to Metallurg for another 2 years.

Squad3 Aug 2026

A falling-out at Metallurg

Mirzohid G'ofurov and a teammate went at it, and not about football. Training grounds are small places and a long season makes them smaller.

Player ratings3 Aug 2026

Nobody could get near Armin Bošnjak

Successful dribbles: 21. Every time he got the ball somebody had to make a decision, and every time the decision was wrong.

Squad3 Aug 2026

Azimjon Ahmedov 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.

Transfer targets3 Aug 2026

Neftchi tell Metallurg: Akbar To'rayev is not for sale

The approach was made and the answer came back in a sentence. There is no number on the table because there was no number that would have been enough.

The dugout3 Aug 2026

The manager makes an example of Sanjar Shoahmedov

“If you cannot run for the shirt, somebody else will wear it.” No name was used and none was needed; every player in that room knew who it was for.

Market3 Aug 2026

Javohir Rasulov already looking beyond Metallurg

He signed expecting a bigger stage than the one he found. It has not taken long, and it has not taken the dressing room long to notice either.

Squad3 Aug 2026

The formation has left Jahongir Abdumo'minov behind

Every shape has positions in it and this one does not have his. Metallurg will either change the shape, change his job, or change his club, and he is waiting to hear which.

In brief
