The football match between Neftchi-W and Sevinch as part of the 24th matchday of the Women's High League scheduled for Sunday did not take place today.

The reason is that the Neftchi-W team players refused to play due to salaries not being paid for several months. According to the rules of the competition, Neftchi-W was handed a technical defeat in this match.

Currently, there are similar problems in the Navbahor-W and Sogdiyona-W teams.

"Uzbekistan Football Association will not ignore this incident and will strictly monitor the non-payment of wages to players and will take measures to prevent such situations in women's football," UFA said in a statement afterwards.
