When your own country qualifies for a World Cup for the first time in its history, it’s time to go big rather than go home in Uzbekistan. At least, that’s the approach of President Shavkat Mirziyoyev. After the 3-0 victory in the World Cup qualifier against Qatar, he simply gifted each of his players their own luxurious electric car—worth around $50,000.

Uzbekistan was already as good as qualified after the 0-0 draw against the United Arab Emirates, but the win over Qatar has now made their participation in next year’s World Cup official.
