Uzbekistan chess team bags silver at FIDE World Team Championship
In the decisive match, Uzbek chess players lost to the Chinese team with a score of 1.5-2.5.

Despite their spectacular win over the Indian team in the semi-finals, young chess players from Uzbekistan lost the game against China and took second place in the tournament.
Spain secured the bronze medal, forcing India out of the TOP-3.
