⚽️ Our striker Temurkhodja Abdukholikov’s two goals gave our team three points in Samara. Happily, the goal scored from a distance was recognized as the “Most Beautiful Goal” of the 7th round by the UzPFL.
✅ Of course, such recognition cannot but delight Lokomotiv fans. In this regard, we were interested in the thoughts of our striker Temurkhodja.
About the match with Dynamo
– I congratulate all Lokomotiv fans on the important victory. The match was very wonderful. Two teams playing football in Samara fought against each other. We don’t like boring football either. The more fans come, the better for us.
About the goals scored
– I consider my goals to be the result of teamwork. I don’t want to single out anyone here. Everyone did their job and the goals were scored. I saw the goalkeeper go ahead for the first goal and took a risk. I’m happy that my plan worked.
After I kicked the ball, it went up in the air and I thought it shouldn’t have gone in. Because the ball didn’t go straight, it spun, and I thought it shouldn’t have gone in like that. I thought it should have hit the goalpost. Fortunately, it was a goal. I scored the second goal with a low shot. I had made a similar shot in previous games, but it wasn’t like that. What do you think, this time it will be the lucky one.
About the most beautiful goal
– I wouldn’t call it the most beautiful goal in my career. I’ve scored many goals that the fans like before. But every goal that results is beautiful for me. In the 2016 Uzbekistan Cup final against Nasaf – that match was also held at the same stadium in Samarkand – then the goal I scored with a header against Al Nasr in Dubai, the penalty against Al Ittihad, and the goal I scored at home against Sepahan – these are also among the important goals.
Summary of the first 7 rounds
– We lack stability in attack. We could not take advantage of the situations in some games. If we score, it is good for us. We are working on this in training. I personally have problems with finishing the attack, I am trying to fix that. Our results could have been better, but we are grateful. If we are lucky, we will regain the lost points in the next competitions.
About consecutive games
– It is going great, I really like it. If you remember, we used to play every Tuesday in the Asian Champions League and every Saturday in the Super League. It would be great. Even now, it’s great to play every fourth or fifth day.
