Kuala Lumpur: As we count down to the conclusion of the Great Grounds of Asia series, allow us to present our penultimate venue - Tashkent’s Pakhtakor Stadium.
The first venue profiled from Uzbekistan, Pakhtakor Stadium has hosted a series of crucial matches in Asian football history and traces its roots back over 60 years.
Important AFC youth team tournaments, historic continental club clashes and memorable national team fixtures have all been held at the ground in the centre of Uzbekistan’s capital – a worthy addition to our series.
Overview
Pakhtakor Stadium is located in the heart of Tashkent on the edge of a picturesque park, with its distinctive blue and yellow seats – the colours of home side Pakhtakor.
Renovations in 2008 upgraded all the seats from wood to plastic, while new changing rooms and a VIP area were added along with a new giant screen.
