On June 10, the 10th round of the third stage of the FIFA World Cup Asian qualifiers will commence. The final round will feature several matchups, including Uzbekistan vs. Qatar, Kyrgyzstan vs. UAE, Iran vs. DPRK, Palestine vs. Oman, Jordan vs. Iraq, South Korea vs. Kuwait, Japan vs. Indonesia, Saudi Arabia vs. Australia, and China vs. Bahrain. The Uzbekistan – Qatar match will take place at 18:45 at the Bunyodkor Stadium, with a team of Chinese referees officiating the game. Ma Ning will serve as the main referee, assisted by Zhou Fei and Zhang Cheng. Jin Jingyuan will act as the fourth official, while Fu Ming will oversee the VAR system. Although the outcome of this match will have no impact on the group standings, it presents a great opportunity for Uzbekistan to end the qualifiers on a high note before their debut at the 2026 FIFA World Cup. The two teams have faced each other 16 times since 2000, with Uzbekistan winning 9 matches, Qatar winning 4, and 3 games ending in a draw. Javokhir Tashkhodjayev, UzA
