Georgiy Schennikov

Georgy Shchennikov is a successful Russian footballer, defender of CSKA Moscow and the national team. Three-time Russian football champion, three times winner of the Russian Cup and Super Cup. Participant of the 2014 FIFA World Cup and 2016 European Championship. The son of the four-time world champion Mikhail Shchennikov, who won the 1996 Olympic silver in race walking, increased his father's fame: at the age of 18 he won the title of the best young football player in Russia.

The future defender of CSKA and the Russian national team was born in the capital in the spring of 1991. The atmosphere that reigned in the house did not leave George with no other option but to become an athlete. Both Shchennikov's father and mother devoted their lives to sports: dad - race walking, mom - athletics.

The father brought the young Muscovite to the "army" football school. The boy, who was in the fifth grade, fell into the talented hands of coach Nikolai Konovalov. A year later, Georgy Shchennikov brought the mentor the main prize of the youth tournament in Astrakhan.

Valery Gazzaev, seeing the young footballer in the game, called him the most talented player among his peers. The high appraisal of the master inspired Shchennikov, forcing him to redouble his efforts.

In 2007, Georgy Shchennikov opened a new chapter in his sports biography: after graduating from a sports school, he received an invitation and joined the reserve team of CSKA. The debut took place in 2008, at an away match, where the rivals of the "army" were the players of "Torpedo". The teams clashed in the match-duel for 1/16 of the Russian Cup.

Then the CSKA match against the Kaliningrad Baltika took place, which Georgy Shchennikov played from the beginning to the final whistle. Fans of the "red-blue" appreciated the bright player: the army of his fans has grown significantly.

The defender played another cup game and his third match in the main team. The opponents were the Spanish footballers of the Deportivo club. Shchennikov appeared on the field at the end of the second half, at the 86th minute, as a result of a player substitution. CSKA won a brilliant victory with a score of 3: 0.

In February 2008, Georgy Schennikov again played the entire match on the pitch, playing against the British Aston Villa in the same UEFA Cup tournament. The defender spent 23 matches for the youth squad. The debut of the young footballer for the main team took place in late summer 2009. At the national championship, Shchennikov fought in the 1/16 Russian Cup match against the black-and-whites from the Vladimir Torpedo. In the Premier League, the footballer played 25 matches.

The first prestigious award went to a Muscovite in the spring of 2009: in March, Shchennikov won the Russian Super Cup. And in May of the same year, the Cup of the country was in his piggy bank. After summing up the results of the year, George was called the opening of the season and his name was included in the top 33 best players in the championship.

In 2010, the army team reached the quarter-finals of the Champions League, which was a good impetus for Shchennikov for further development. In the summer of 2011, due to a recurrence of an ankle injury he received in the spring, the defender dropped out of the training process. George returned to the field only in October.

Shchennikov managed to excel in March 2014 in the Russian Cup game. The opponents of CSKA were players from the Grozny club Terek. Moskvich chalked up the decisive goal in the 111th minute of the game. The goal was the first for Georgy as part of the "red-blue".

Georgy Shchennikov, whose height is 1.8 m with a height of 75 kg, is called the strongest player in the army's defense line, although he has not so many goals scored into the opponent's goal. But the number of goals is not a performance indicator for a defender.

In the national youth team of the country, Georgy Shchennikov appeared in 2009, having played for the team in 5 matches. In 2013 he took part in the European Championship. As part of the national team, the player made his debut in August 2012: the Russian team, coached by Fabio Capello, was opposed by the Ivory Coast national team.

In early summer 2014, Georgy Shchennikov joined the final roster of the Russian national team, formed for the World Cup in Brazil. But the defender did not appear on the field.

In 2016, the promising defender was included in the application of the Russian national team for the European Championship. In June he joined the national team for a match against England. In the 72nd minute he received a yellow card and a free kick, which allowed the British to score the ball into the Russians' goal. In the last minutes of the game, Georgy Shchennikov gave an assist pass to defender Vasily Berezutsky, which allowed the match to end in a draw.

In February 2013, Izvestia announced the completion of negotiations between the CSKA leadership and Shchennikov regarding the extension of the contract, which had expired. The parties quickly agreed and signed a new agreement for 5 years. The footballer's salary was raised, which (according to insider information) is $ 1 million per year, excluding bonuses.

Georgy Shchennikov met his future wife Diana during his school years. A long romance with a girl passed the test of time and culminated in a wedding, which the army defender played after CSKA won the Russian Championship in 2013.

The team attended the celebration in full force and presented the newlyweds with a video greeting: a 20-minute sketch show with dressing up and makeup. The “acting” troupe included CSKA goalkeeper Igor Akinfeev and coach Leonid Slutsky.

In the summer of 2014, his wife gave Georgy the first-born son Daniel, and in the summer of 2017 the couple had a daughter, Ulyana. The CSKA defender does not flaunt his personal life: it is difficult to persuade him in interviews, he rarely appears on social networks. Fans see family pictures of the favorite on his wife's Instagram page.

Recovering from an ankle injury, Georgy Shchennikov took up his studies at the Academy of Physical Education in six months. I passed some tests ahead of time in order to free up time in the future and not be interrupted by training and games.

What he will do after the end of his sports career, George has not yet decided. For half a year of forced rest, he became interested in economics and thought about a second higher education. It is not excluded that Shchennikov will stop at coaching, close and understandable.

In the 2017/2018 season, the CSKA defender participated in the 26th national championship and the UEFA Champions League, scoring his debut goals. But in May 2018, it became known that Shchennikov dropped out of the team before the end of the season due to injury.

According to "Championship.com", the 27-year-old footballer will not be able to help the "army team" in the remaining matches of the national championship, where CSKA will fight with Tula "Arsenal" and Makhachkala "Anji".

This season, the defender has played 19 games in the Football Premier League (RFPL), scoring 3 goals and making one assist.
