It is encouraging that football in Tajikistan in recent years becomes widespread, as individual players and teams of the country show spectacular games and encouraging results. That is why the ranks of football fans in recent years in Tajikistan is significantly expanding.

Tonight it is not an exception. Central Capital stadium, with a capacity of more than 25 thousand persons, was crowded with fans of the national team of Tajikistan and football fans.

Visit to match by the country's President Emomali Rahmon, who is a true lover of sport and a very active promoter of healthy lifestyles, inspired not only the Tajik football players, but also all the fans gathered.

It should be recalled that this is the first game of the second qualifying round to qualify for the FIFA World Cup 2018 between teams of Tajikistan and Jordan.

The game was pretty spectacular and sharp. Both teams showed a strong will to win, showed high football skills and ability.

However, as is well known, the victory goes to only one team, and today luck was on the side of the Jordan football team, which showed great skill to the home team and won 3-1.
