World Cup History
The 2026 World Cup is set to be Umar Eshmurodov's first senior World Cup. He has not appeared at the finals before, and this is also Uzbekistan's first time at a World Cup, with the country reaching the finals for the first time in 2026. A centre-back with 39 senior caps and no international goals, he brings that record to the tournament rather than any previous World Cup experience.
