For many years, football has been a favorite among sports enthusiasts. There are a lot of fans of the game around the world, and for them this sport has become a part of life.
This can be seen by looking at the stadiums during football matches. The stands roar, they are crowded, and everyone is focused on the game. But not only in stadiums, but also near TV screens, millions of people are sitting and watching the fight.
Football is the basis of life
Football makes you wait, worry and worry. There is probably no person who, watching a football match of his favorite team, would not be worried about the outcome of the meeting and how each of the 90 minutes of the match goes. This is what expresses the power of football, its role in the lives of many people.
Ukrainian football. National team
Ukrainian football, like world football, is beautiful and exciting. Since the country's independence, from the top of the Premier League table to the last round, a struggle has been waged for each type of medal.
The Ukrainian teams that are in the top five of their championship are sent to European competition, where they are fighting for titles in the European arena. A very good game is shown in the Champions League and the Europa League. Shakhtar Donetsk won the UEFA Cup, Dnipropetrovsk Dnipro became the finalist of the Europa League. These achievements are enough to talk about the power of Ukrainian football.
But speaking of the national football team of Ukraine, you will not find such arguments in favor of the team, the Ukrainians are not able to successfully perform in the international arena. But on the other hand, individual players of the national team can be distinguished. For example, Andriy Shevchenko, who played for a long time in the Ukrainian team. This football player was once the best in Europe, he played in top championships and in strong clubs, getting prestigious football trophies.
You can distinguish from the national team of the Ukrainian goalkeeper named Alexander Shovkovsky. This football player for a long time defended the gates of the team, helping out from goals conceded. Alexander still continues to do this, despite his age. He is a veteran of the Ukrainian team, its talisman and symbol.
Ukrainian goalkeeper hero
Alexander Shovkovsky is great for fans and patriots of Ukraine. For many years he is the best goalkeeper in the country. Looking at his game, we can say that he can easily compete on the same level with Buffon or Neuer. Great saves, jumps, one-on-one exits are stored in the archive of the Ukrainian goalkeeper. You can recall several matches in which Alexander Shovkovsky became a hero for his team.
One of them is with Switzerland at the World Cup. Sasha repelled three penalties, without missing a single one, and thus brought the team to the next round.
The second is the match for the Ukrainian Super Cup, when in the penalty shootout, Alexander Shovkovsky saved his team and won the cup for himself, the club and the fans. Showing such a level of football in his years, Alexander deserves the respect of football fans.
Childhood of Alexander Shovkovsky
A goalkeeper of this level deserves close attention. And it becomes interesting how Alexander achieved all these successes. To do this, you need to begin to study his life from childhood.
Goalkeeper of the Ukrainian national football team Shovkovsky Alexander, whose biography is full of achievements, was born on January 2, 1975 in Ukraine, in the city of Kiev. Like all children, at six he went to school. And as early as the next year he began to play football. Changing only two clubs, he becomes a member of the youth team Dynamo, and after ten years, Alexander plays professional football. He made his debut in the Dynamo-2 team in 1992. And already in 1994 he made his debut in the major league. Hard work on his skills, and after a few years, Alexander becomes the best in the country. The love of football from early childhood helped Shovkovsky achieve this level.
Personal life
Alexander Shovkovsky, whose personal life was never open to the media, divorced his wife. This news alarmed all football fans, because Alexander is a kind and good person, but no one knows the reasons for divorce.
Probably, the reasons for such a move were very good. Alexander does not like to go deep into his personal life, nor with a divorce - he did not give any explanation, since he considers this to be purely personal. Shovkovsky Alexander, whose wife is socialite Olga Alenova, decided that the divorce process should go quietly and calmly. What and how will be in the personal life of the great Ukrainian goalkeeper, no one knows. We wish Alexander that everything in his personal and football life be good.
