Uzbekistan’s President Shavkat Mirziyoyev has ordered a one-hour delay to the start of the workday on June 18th. This decision is in recognition of the national football team’s historic appearance in a FIFA World Cup qualifying match. The announcement was made by the President’s press secretary, Sherzod Asadov. The move aims to allow citizens time to support the team during the important game. This demonstrates the government’s support for the national team and acknowledges the significance of the match for the country. The specific opponent and match details were not provided in the initial report, but the event is considered historically important for Uzbek football. The adjustment is a single-day measure intended to foster national unity and enthusiasm.
