He added that Abduvahid Nematov was chosen as the main goalkeeper because he showed himself well in the friendly matches held before the World Cup.
“Since I came here, Abduvahid Nematov has shown himself well in the national team and in friendly matches. So I tried to give him a chance. The reason is that the World Cup is such a competition that everyone should share experience. “If I have a good goalkeeper like Abduvahid, why should I not use it like that?” says Cannavaro.
