Today, July 27, the second round of football matches at the Paris 2024 Olympics commenced in Nantes, France. The Uzbekistan national team, competing in Group C, faced Egypt and narrowly missed advancing due to a close score.
The only goal of the match was scored by Ahmed Koka in the 11th minute.
As a result, Temur Kapadze's team was eliminated from the competition. Even if the team wins their match against the Dominican Republic in the third round, they will not advance to the quarterfinals.
In the second group match, Spain defeated the Dominican Republic 3-1, securing an early spot in the quarterfinals. Consequently, Egypt, which defeated Uzbekistan, has also secured a place in the playoffs.
The Uzbekistan Olympic team is scheduled to play its final match against the Dominican Republic on July 30.
