Match12 Aug 2026
Mashal bow out of the cup
Lokomotiv go through and Mashal go home, 0‑2 the scoreline that did it. The dressing room will call the league the priority now, because that is what dressing rooms say.

The boos come down from three sides
“We pay for this every fortnight. The least we want is somebody who looks like he cares.” 7 of the 35 senior players walked off into it; the rest were not playing.

Suhrobjon Parmonqulov is on his way
The clubs have agreed terms, and what remains is formality: a medical, a photograph, a signature. Nobody at Mashal is pretending he will be back in the shirt.

Tempers go at Mashal
Raphael Ayagwa was at the centre of it, and by the time it was pulled apart there were three or four others involved. Training grounds are small places and long seasons make them smaller.

Nobody could get near Sardor Abduraimov
Successful dribbles: 20. Every time he got the ball somebody had to make a decision, and every time the decision was wrong.

Mashal come up short against Sogdiana
Sogdiana left with the points after a 0‑2 defeat that will take some explaining on the terraces.

Sherzod Fayziyev gets it from the manager
“Nobody here is above being told.” It was not said with a name attached, but the dressing room can count, and so can everybody who was listening.

Sherzod Fayziyev gives it away
There was no pressure on him and nowhere he had to be. Mashal lost a goal to a decision that took half a second and will be discussed all week.
In brief

- Player ratings The one thing Humoyun Murtozaev could not do
