Eldor Shomurodov and Uzbekistan earned themselves a comfortable win over Iran during a recent international friendly inside Istiqlol stadioni on Thursday, September 24, 2026.

The result also marked the end of a five-game winless run for Uzbekistan and Eldor Shomurodov, who can take a lot of confidence for the upcoming games in the elongated international window.
