The summary of the second matchday of the Last Chance in the Kings World Cup Nations

All the quarterfinal matchups for the Kings World Cup Nations are now set. Mexico completed the list of the eight teams qualified for the quarterfinals after thrashing Germany (6-3) in the last duel of the Last Chance round.

Although the match seemed very evenly balanced on paper, the experience of the Mexican players in this format prevailed at the Peppino Vismara. As expected, Obed Martínez did not miss his appointment with the goal.

The fact that Mexico will face Argentina in the quarterfinals is largely thanks to the 7 goals scored by the tournament’s top scorer in the first three games. However, this time, the goal of the matchday came from his compatriot Juan Cisneros.

The other team that secured their place in the quarterfinals is Uzbekistan. The Asian team was one of the tournament’s biggest question marks at the start of the Kings World Cup Nations.

However, Abdujabborov’s side surprised everyone by qualifying for the quarterfinals after defeating Peru in a thrilling Last Chance match.

Tukthasinov became the hero of all Uzbekistan by preventing Peru’s comeback with a double goal in the final play of the match.

Nonetheless, none of this would have been possible without the 5 goals Jabborov has already scored in the Kings World Cup Nations.

Thanks to his brace against Peru, the Uzbek striker matched the numbers of Kelvin Oliveira, with only Nadir Louah (6) and Obed Martínez (7) scoring more goals in the first three games of the tournament.

Now Uzbekistan faces a real test of fire as they take on Colombia in the quarterfinals of the Kings World Cup Nations.
