At the Asian Cup (U-23), the goalkeeper of the Kyrgyzstan U-23 national team, Kurmanbek Nurlanbekov, made a historic save by saving a penalty in the match against Saudi Arabia.
The match, which was the first in the group, took place on January 6 in Jeddah and ended with a score of 1:0 in favor of the hosts.
In the 74th minute of the game, the referee awarded a penalty for a handball by Arslan Bekberdinov. The midfielder of the Al-Qadisiyah team, Musab Al-Juwair, approached the ball but was unable to outplay Nurlanbekov.
This moment became historic as Nurlanbekov became the first goalkeeper from Kyrgyzstan to save a penalty in the final tournaments of the Asian Cup across all age categories.
The Kyrgyzstan national team has participated in the final stages of the Asian Cup seven times. During these matches, 7 penalties were awarded against the team, and only one of them was successfully saved.
