Uzbekistan national team defender Abdukodir Khusanov has been named in SofaScore’s FA Cup Team of the Tournament after helping Manchester City win the trophy.
City beat Chelsea 1-0 in the final at Wembley, with Antoine Semenyo scoring the only goal of the match. The FA Cup became Manchester City’s second domestic cup of the season after their League Cup final victory over Arsenal in March.
For Khusanov, it was also his second trophy with Manchester City. The Uzbek centre-back had already lifted the League Cup earlier in the season, when City defeated Arsenal 2-0 at Wembley.
SofaScore included Khusanov in a three-man defensive line after giving him an average rating of 7.32 across the FA Cup campaign. The Uzbekistan defender was named alongside Marc Guéhi and Tosin Adarabioyo.
The symbolic team also features several high-profile Premier League players, including Jérémy Doku, Enzo Fernández, Pedro Neto, Antoine Semenyo and Erling Haaland.
Khusanov’s inclusion is another significant marker in his first months at Manchester City. He has already won two trophies with one of Europe’s leading clubs and has now earned individual recognition in one of England’s major domestic competitions.
For Uzbek football, it is another major milestone: one of its players has won two English trophies with Manchester City and been recognised among the standout performers of the FA Cup campaign.
