All-around plus against DR Congo
Shomurodov logged one goal on two shots (one on goal) and one cross (zero accurate) during Uzbekistan's 3-1 loss Saturday to DR Congo.
Analysis: With both goalkeeper Lionel Mpasi and right-back Aaron Wan-Bissaka slacking, Shomurodov took advantage of a ball left open in DR Congo's penalty box. At one point, Uzbekistan's top forward lobbed the ball over Mpasi, and the former's overall effort resulted in a goal. Among the Uzbeks, Shomurodov and two others won more than two tackles against Congo's active offense. Only he logged a block against the Congo as well. Overall, his World Cup features one goal on four shots (two on goal), six tackles (four won) and the block.
Minimal impact in loss
Shomurodov registered one shot (zero on goal) and four chances created in Tuesday's 5-0 loss to Portugal.
Analysis: Shomurodov was ticketed to be one of Uzbekistan's best players in the World Cup. However, the striker, who has had previous stints at Roma, Cagliari and several other Serie A clubs, has been limited to just two shots across 179 minutes of play. He'll aim to bounce back against DR Congo in the group-stage finale on Saturday.
