A disciplined and patient second-half display turned the match around after a difficult opening 20 minutes, handing the home side three crucial points that keep them within touching distance of the leading pack.
A Slow Start Costs the Home Side
QMU Jayxun came flying out of the blocks and stunned the home crowd by scoring inside the 12th minute. A quick break down the left saw TMF midfielder Bakhtiyor Islomov slot the ball past the Olympic MobiUz goalkeeper. The rest of the first half was a battle in midfield, with the hosts struggling to create meaningful chances against a compact QMU back five.
Olympic MobiUz returned from the interval with clear intent. They pushed higher up the pitch, pressed aggressively, and brought more bodies into the penalty area. The equalizer arrived in the 67th minute when substitute Hojimat Erkinov collected a loose ball and fired a low shot into the bottom corner from just outside the box. The goal lifted the atmosphere, and the home side pushed for a winner. It came ten minutes later, as Jasur Tolipov headed in from a corner to send the supporters into raptures.
