FIFA Series - Penalty triumph for Uzbekistan; Indonesia edged

Kuala Lumpur: Fabio Cannavaro had another positive night in charge of Uzbekistan after the Central Asian side emerged 5-4 winners on penalties against Venezuela in their FIFA Series tie on Monday.

Indonesia, meanwhile, suffered a 1-0 defeat against Bulgaria.

Uzbekistan, who defeated Gabon 3-1 on Friday, enjoyed no luck in front of the Bulgaria goalmouth as the tie ended goalless at the end of regulation time.

Akmal Mozgovoy struck the decisive spot-kick, with goalkeeper Abduvakhid Nematov also taking the plaudits for saving Carlos Sosa’s attempt.

In Jakarta, Indonesia fell to a 1-0 defeat at the hands of Bulgaria. The only goal of the match came in the 38th minute through Marin Petkov’s penalty after Kevin Diks tripped Zdravko Dimitrov in the box.

Indonesia defeated St Kitts and Nevis 4-0 on Friday.
