Sogdiana Women 4–1 Neftchi Women
Uzbekistan Women’s League – 11 June 2026

Sogdiana Women delivered a commanding performance on Thursday evening, cruising to a 4‑1 victory over Neftchi Women in the Uzbekistan Women’s League. The home side’s relentless attacking display ensured they collected three valuable points in front of an enthusiastic crowd.

Match Overview

Sogdiana took control from the first minute, pressing Neftchi high and forcing early turnovers. The opening goal came inside ten minutes when midfielder Zarina Kamilova fired home from a tight angle after a deflected cross fell kindly. Neftchi responded with a brief spell of pressure but were punished again before the half‑hour mark.

Key Moments

• 9’ – Goal: Kamilova capitalises on a defensive mix‑up to slot Sogdiana ahead.
• 27’ – Goal: Winger Madina Rakhimova cuts in from the left and curls a beautiful shot into the top corner.
• 45+2’ – Goal: A corner is flicked on by centre‑back Oysha Nuriddinova for a 3‑0 half‑time lead.
• 55’ – Goal (Neftchi): Substitute Gulnora Tursunova pulls one back with a low drive from the edge of the box.
• 68’ – Goal: Striker Sevinch Ergasheva restores the three‑goal cushion with a poacher’s finish from close range.

Tactical Story

Sogdiana set up in a fluid 4‑2‑3‑1 that allowed their attacking midfielders to rotate freely. The full‑backs, especially left‑back Dildora Yuldasheva, overlapped constantly, creating overloads in wide areas. Neftchi, playing a 4‑4‑2, were unable to contain Sogdiana’s movement. After conceding the third goal just before half‑time, Neftchi looked shell‑shocked. Their second‑half goal came against the run of play, but Sogdiana quickly regained control and killed off the contest.

Standout Players

• Zarina Kamilova (Sogdiana): Scored the crucial opening goal and dictated the tempo from midfield.
• Madina Rakhimova (Sogdiana): A constant threat on the wing; her goal was the highlight of the match.
• Sevinch Ergasheva (Sogdiana): Led the line effectively and took her chance well to make the scoreline safe.

Impact on the Standings

The win strengthens Sogdiana Women’s position in the upper half of the Uzbekistan Women’s League table, moving them to 19 points from 12 matches. Neftchi, meanwhile, remain in the lower reaches, now with only 10 points, and will need to tighten their defence to climb away from danger.
