On the other side, Fabio Cannavaro’s Uzbekistan arrives motivated after their historic debut. Despite the defeat to Colombia, the Asian team showed defensive organization and will have Abbosbek Fayzullaev and Eldor Shomurodov as the main highlights to watch on the broadcast. The team uses 3-4-2-1 to try to neutralize the Portuguese power.

Uzbekistan (3-4-2-1):Utkir Yusupov; Abdukodir Khusanov, Rustamjon Ashurmatov, Abdulla Abdullaev; Bekhruz Karimov, Otabek Shukurov, Akmal Mozgovoy, Sherzod Nasrullaev; Abbosbek Fayzullaev, Oston Urunov; Eldor Shomurodov.
