Started by Pep Guardiola on January 25, the former Lensois, Abdukodir Khusanov (20 years old) had a horrible first 4 minutes in this Manchester City – Chelsea.
This Saturday, January 25, a lot of things must have happened in Abdukodir Khusanov’s head… Sold to Manchester City for 50 million euros by RC Lens a few days ago, the young Uzbek defender was started by Pep Guardiola against Chelsea. Associated with Josko Gvardiol in the axis, everything did not go as planned for the former rock of the Blood and Gold.
Khusanov’s crazy mistake
From the second minute of play, Abdukodir Khusanov received the ball in his camp. The defender doesn’t know what to do and tries to head back towards his goalkeeper… Except that Nicolas Jackson recovers and serves Noni Madueke perfectly who just has to push while Ederson is logically beaten.
Just after this big blunder, the former RC Lens player took an avoidable yellow after contact with Cole Palmer… In 4 minutes, Abdukodir Khusanov’s face changed and it took 15 minutes before he returned to his match. Missed pass, questionable exit… It was complicated but the Manchester City defender pulled himself together before the break. It’s 1 to 1 for now, to be continued!
