    Ok, AFC bring news on this league on a regular basis, so why not cover it?

    Khakimov is Tajikistan’s best

    DUSHANBE: Tajikistan international Numondzhon Khakimov was named 2009 Tajikistan Player of the Year recently.

    The 31-year-old striker finished as top goalscorer with 15 goals in the league which helped Vakhsh regain the crown.

    “I am very happy with this season’s results. I think I did play well before also but this year was the greatest in my career and for my club as well. I would like to thank all my teammates for a great job,” Khakimov (pictured) said.

    Vakhsh’s Aslidin Khabibulloev was chosen as Tajikistan Coach of the Year while defender Rakhmatullo Fuzaylov as the best defender.

    AFC President’s Cup 2009 winning goalkeeper from Regar-TadAZ, Alisher Dodov got the best goalkeeper’s trophy with Yusuf Rabiev and Fatkhulo Fatkhulloev, both from Tajikistan Cup holders Istiqlol, were adjudged best striker and midfielder respectively.

    It's proving a bit to hard for the Tajik champions.

    Aktobe are a decent team at this level. It was for me anyway, always going to be interesting to see how Vakhsh would do against a Kazak side, as of course Kazak teams used to play in Asia

    Tajikistan are a nation on the rise. I really hope they win the Challenge Cup 2010 and make the Asian Cup 2011.

    A draw in the last game against a Helsinki side that didn't need to come out fighting.

    It is hard for the Central Asian teams, except Uzbekistan teams, to really compete at this level. Their domestic leagues are poor, they get about 2 decent matches a season and the AFC Presidents Cup isn't brilliant and lasts for about 5 games. They need more competitive games, so come on AFC, put them in the AFC Cup!!

    I like this tajikistan national team and players, and followed them since their youth side reached the round of 16 during the FIFA U-17 world cup held in Korea in 2007.

    Farkhod Vasiev is a good player and there is also Parvizchon Umarboev playing for the FC Rubin Kazan reserve team. More tajik players should try their luck in Russia or Ukraine leagues to improve themselves, and i hope that tajikistan will eventually get better results.

    Good luck !!

    Well, Esteghal did the nation proud at the CIS Cup, they made the QF stage before succumbing to Skonto Riga of Latvia:

    1:1 Iskra Stal
    0:3 Inter Baku
    5:0 Neftchi
    0:2 Skonto

    Big win in the Central Asian derby against Neftchi, they could meet again in the AFC Presidents Cup. Qualified on goal difference for the Quarter finals where they met there match.

    Tajikistans first steps on the road to going professional

    Dunshanbe: Tajikistan Football Federation Vice-President Valeriy Toursunov has hailed AFC for its assistance to help professionalise football further in the Central Asian nation.

    Speaking at the end of a seven-day inspection visit by the AFC Professional Football Project delegation, Toursunov said:

    “The AFC development visit was very productive and a helpful one to Tajik football. The AFC delegations did an impressive job and the result of their visit is remarkable for us.

    “We should thank the Asian Football Confederation for their assistance and hope this support is continued in the future.”

    The task force led by AFC Professional Football Project Head Kim Steve visited 12 clubs in various cities to share with them the direction to establish a professional football league.

    Tajikistan is a power house in the AFC Challenge Cup and won the first tournament title in 2006. Tajikistan clubs also showed a high-level performance at the AFC President’s Cup and clinched three titles in 2005, 2008 and 2009. Tajikistan was also one of the AFC representatives in FIFA U-17 World Cup 2007 in Korea Republic.

    On the last day of the inspection, Kim has outlined during a workshop the strengths and area of improvements for Tajikistan professional football.

    Kim said: “We have identified that there is high popularity of football, strong support from the local government, strong commitment of the Member Association to developing professional football and government’s investment on clubs’ facilities.

    “We have also noted major areas of improvement such as poor club facilities, lack of qualified personnel in the League and clubs, match operations (competition, security and media), lack of marketing programmes, clubs’ overreliance on government subsidies, lack of TV coverage of the domestic League, challenges in logistics and insufficient certified coaches and youth development programmes.

    "However, the clubs are willing to hire professional people or educate their officials and AFC may need to keep continuing its assistance.

    “I trust that our inspection has provided helpful feedback to the MA and clubs so that they can efficiently allocate their resources for further development of their football facilities,” concluded Kim.
