NEROCA were the dominant side in the early stages, with midfielders Mirjalol Kasimov and Tangva Ragui doing most of the running. The Orange Brigade, however, were unable to translate that possession into goals, while the hosts were happy to sit back and defend
A first-half header by Kyrgyz defender Aidar Mambetaliev was enough for the hosts to collect three points as they remained unbeaten for the third straight game.
