Ahal will play against Ashgabat in the 15th round of the Turkmenistan Football Championship
Today, on August 23, the 15th round of the Turkmenistan Football Championship will be held. Residents and guests of the capital will have the opportunity to attend the match between Ashgabat and Ahal.
FC "Ashgabat", being the average player of the highest football league of Turkmenistan, scored four points in the last four matches. The capital's team at the start of the second round drew with "Merv" - 2:2, then with a big score lost to Balkanabad "Nebitchi" - 6:1.
However, then the club managed to rehabilitate itself, beating Mary "Energetik" with a minimum score - 1:0.
Ashgabat played its last match against FC Arkadag. The meeting ended with a score of 2:0 in favor of the team from the city of national importance.
In addition, the capital's team has a number of problems in the center of defense. This is evidenced by the crushing defeat of "Nebitchi". But this is not the only weakness of the team, which ranks fifth in the standings.
The team also suffers from inefficiency in attack, inability to control the ball and create scoring chances, as well as a lack of leadership and motivation on the field.
All these factors lead to the fact that the team loses points after points and risks being located at the bottom of the major league standings. The team urgently needs to change its game if it wants to keep its place among the best clubs in the country.
As for the champions, the stunning start of "Ahal" in the second round caused a storm of emotions among the fans of this club. The team of the Main Department of "Turkmennebitonumleri" first defeated "Altyn Asyr" with a score of 2:1, and then defeated "Kopetdag" - 3:1.
However, in contrast to the joy, the fans were disappointed when the team sensationally drew with Turkmenbashi "Shagadam" - 2:2.
The head coach of "Ahal" Serdar Geldiyev continues to focus on the attack. Given the number of strong performers in midfield and attack, this tactic looks logical.
From the point of view of the attacking potential, "Ahal" now looks stronger. The champions have a whole scattering of high-level forwards and attacking midfielders. Elman Tagayev, the offensive leader of last season, continues to show good football, scoring three goals in the last three matches.
Newcomers Alibek Abdyrahmanov and Yazgylych Kurbanov perfectly fit into the team game.
Plus, other players are also constantly connected to attacks and are aimed at the gate
Of course, two missed goals from Shagadam are not the best statistics. However, today the players of "Ahal" will have the opportunity to rehabilitate themselves in a match against not the strongest opponent.
