Bayern Munich midfielder Tymoshchuk completed a neat move on 54 minutes, lashing a shot across the goalkeeper and into the corner from the edge of the area.
Voronin doubled the lead minutes later, driving home a rebound after Oleh Husev’s free kick hit the crossbar.
Veteran forward Andriy Shevchenko missed an early chance to put the hosts head, rolling a close-range shot past the post.
Uzbekistan, ranked 56th in the world, battled in midfield but never posed an attacking threat.
