Biography
Sanjar Kuvvatov (uzbek cyr.:Санжар Қувватов, uzbek lat.: Sanjar Quvvatov), (born 8 January 1990) is an Uzbek footballer. The 5 ft 11 in goalkeeper plays for Uzbek League team Mash'al Mubarek. He's played for Uzbekistan at several youth levels, including the under-20 and -21 side.
He played all three of Uzbekistan's games in the 2009 FIFA U-20 World Cup in Egypt conceding six goals. Despite finishing third in Group D, the one point gained wasn't enough for Uzbekistan to advance to the knock-out rounds. Kuvvatov played against England under-21s on 10 August 2010 at Ashton Gate. Despite England having nearly all of the possession and taking an abundance of shots, the score was kept down to just 2-0 -- primarily because of Kuvvatov's excellent shot-stopping.
