He started as a correspondent for NTV-Plus, in 2004 ended up on Russia-2 and quickly became the main star of one of the most boring Russian television channels. Subsequently, Vasily Utkin tried to return him to NTV-Plus, but Stognienko preferred to remain the first on the federal channel (VGTRK then did not have strong commentators, and Stognienko looked advantageous against the background of any colleague), and not one of the best - on satellite.

At Russia-2, Stognienko commented mainly on the Russian, Italian and English championships. Respecting the tradition of the British to root for local teams throughout the city, he himself prefers the Italian Serie A, considering it more interesting English Premier League... A CSKA fan (but actively hides it, preferring to say that as a native Muscovite he supports the local team), worries about Milan and Boca Juniors. He ends the match with the unchanging phrase "Goodbye and good luck", apparently inspired by the film by George Clooney.

Strengths Stognienko is charismatic, his comment irritates minimum quantity listeners. He jokes, but in moderation (which is rather good). His role is his boyfriend, who will not burden the viewer with deep tactical analysis. By and large, Stognienko does not say anything that the viewer cannot think of himself. Than to be clever, he is better once again will quote something close and understandable like the movie "Courier" or the cartoon "Once upon a time there was a dog." He tries to be natural, to use a simple vocabulary familiar to an ordinary Russian.

Flaw It can alienate sophisticated and demanding listeners who want a serious analysis - Stognienko will rarely go into nuances and will rather limit himself to the traditional “good program”, “ dangerous blow"Or" bad cross. "

Quotes

“Messi has finally become not a football figure, but such a standard of something ideal. I came home to my wife, tasted the borsch, and you say: "Well, you have borscht today - just Messi." Or: "Well, today is not very good, at best - Higuain";

“The Spaniards have the opposite: their defenders live in someone else’s half of the field”;

"An ingenious pass by Gerrard, and Carroll took the ball like - I don't want to say the word 'log' - a block."

Channel"NTV-Plus"

From 82 to 89 he played for Spartak-2, but retired due to a knee injury. On television since 1996. Supports Spartak Moscow. Perhaps the most controversial on this moment a Russian commentator who deliberately exploits his reputation.

Cherdantsev's triumph was his commentary on Russia's victorious quarterfinals at Euro 08 against Holland - several phrases went public (“I’ll finish everything now” (after Russia’s victorious goal), “Kolodin is a terrible cannon”, “Arshavin! I beat one tree ... "). Six years later, they still take autographs from Cherdantsev and thank him for that game. And if before Euro-08 he was a strong, but average commentator, in recent years he does not hide that he works for the Cherdantsev brand.

He was one of the first in Russia to shout "go-o-o-o-ol" in the spirit of Latin American commentators, however, he still hasn't been able to pull vowels for as long.

Strengths / weaknesses Over-emotional delivery, harsh, uncompromising, subjective assessments, commentary on the level of pain - all this impresses one and exactly the same annoys others: Cherdantsev is one of those commentators who are either passionately loved or hated.

Quotes

“I’ll probably order now a car for myself in a special hospital”;

“So what, just think: so what, what did you score, but we still have time! Just think, scored! Except from a free-kick, you can't score anything, the Dutch, too, to me. "

The main football commentator on Channel One, a person with whom the Russian national team's game of the late 90s - early 2000s is associated, as well as all its main failures. A classic remark from a superstitious fan - "again ours lost because of Gusev." Statistically, this, of course, is not the case, but Gusev became a hostage to his established reputation. It got to the point that some of the players of the national team, according to rumors, asked to be removed from commenting on their matches, considering Gusev to be “non-starting”.

A fan of the Jethro Tull group and classic hard rock, a fan of the Moscow Dynamo. In parting, he always says the phrase "Take care of yourself."

Strengths Gusev works at a stable average level, but rarely surprises (except for his blunders). His slightly nasal voice, three signature phrases ("we immediately remember ...", "look what is being done" and "but, attention") and rather artless and good-natured manner of commenting are a guaranteed reminiscence of the past. As the film critic Stanislav Zelvensky accurately noted: “He has such a voice that it seems that he is sure to say something stupid now, but he just doesn’t. Cozy ".

Flaws the main problem Gusev is that due to the lack of competition on the federal channel and a small number of broadcasts, he is stuck in the past. Gusev rarely takes risks, trying to show off an unexpected joke or a non-trivial analysis of the episode, which is why his commentary often looks like oatmeal on water.

Channel"NTV-Plus"

Former Amkar footballer Konstantin Genich retired after an injury at the age of 28 and has since destroyed the myth that Russian athletes are tongue-tied and have nothing to do on television. The best commentator of "NTV-Plus" of two recent years according to the results of a survey of viewers.

Genich works well in pairs - he always listens to someone else's point of view and, if necessary, politely and tactfully corrects or supports a colleague (then carefully play a joke to Gennady Orlov, he will give out together with his partner a parody in the manner of Spanish commentators).

He specializes in the Spanish championship, sympathizes with Barcelona and the English Arsenal.

Strengths Versatility: Genich can joke and shout, and, using his football experience, competently analyze the game moment. The main plus of Genich is that he is not ashamed of his mistakes and is ready to learn from them. Genich, like Stognienko, is his own boyfriend, only in his case - a guy who was a professional footballer.

Flaws Genich does not watch matches with his participation, as he is annoyed own voice... He has problems with diction, speech production, correct pronunciation individual words... Genich likes to make vulgar jokes about beautiful girls in the stands, which were included in the TV broadcast - the majority of Russian fans, however, do not mind.

Patriarch of Russian sports commentary, equally well versed in football and hockey. One of those for whom you can even watch the Shinnik - Tom match, not to mention the World Championship.

He started his career at "NTV-Plus", where he got, having passed the first competition of commentators in 1996. He started with hockey and worked in the group of the legendary Soviet commentator Yevgeny Mayorov. Then he specialized in the Dutch, English, Italian and Spanish football championships, commenting on the Champions League and European Championship finals. Since 2012 he worked on Ukrainian television, but in 2014 due to political situation in Ukraine he returned to Russia.

Rozanov was passionately, even painfully fond of rates and, according to rumors, got into big debts because of this. All my life I was rooting for CSKA, which, unlike most commentators, I never hid. Until 1991 he took an active part in the team's field trips. Foreign preferences include the Dutch national football team and the Montreal Canadiens hockey team.

Strengths Prudence, logic, correctness and objectivity. Rozanov is the main specialist in football tactics, the most corrosive and pedantic commentator, ready to analyze the episode at the molecular level.

Flaws To an untrained fan, Rozanov may seem boring and boring, and those who consider themselves specialists may be annoyed by his mentoring tone and confidence that this or that episode should be interpreted only in this way and not otherwise. After all, you cannot enter into polemics with him, sitting on the couch.

Channel"Russia 2"

At all times, sports have had a large army of fans. Someone likes to watch the competition while at the stadium, someone prefers to stay at home and follow everything that happens on TV screens. Of course, it is much more interesting when skilled commentators are playing a football or basketball game. Some of them are as popular as TV presenters. entertainment programs... Further in the article, we will present to your attention who are the most famous sports commentators in Russia. Let's start with a real veteran.

Gennady Orlov

Before becoming a commentator, he was a footballer, striker. In this field, he received the title of master. G. Orlov is also an Honored Worker of Culture of the Russian Federation and a laureate of the TEFI Prize (2008). He began to get involved in football even in school years, played for "Avangard" (Sumy), and after graduation played in the team of the same name in Kharkov. After the coach of this team noticed him at the match with Zenit Leningrad, he received an invitation to go to Northern capital and join it. For some time he played and lived in Leningrad, but at the age of 25 he had to leave football, as he was injured. Then he decided to return to his homeland, but he met a beautiful girl Olga, who was an actress of the Komissarzhevskaya theater. So he stayed for her and her acting career.

He came to television in 1973. After the death of Viktor Nabutov, one of the best sports commentators in Russia, a vacancy appeared in the sports news office and a competition was announced. decided to participate and won. So it went, it went, he reported from the Olympics and the most important football matches of both the country and the world. He became the leader of such sports programs Leningrad television, like "Penalty", "Five About Football", "Football at Zenith". Then he was invited on a freelance basis to ORT to host the "Goal!" Program. In the fall of 2009, Gennady switched to the NTV-Plus channel, but continued to remain a constant commentator on Zenit matches. Since November 2015, he has been a commentator on football broadcasts on the Match TV channel.

Georgy Cherdantsev

He also tops the rating of the best sports commentators in Russia. He received his main fame as a sports presenter on NTV channels, and then on NTV-Plus. Today he is a commentator on Match TV. He began his television career in 1996, when the staff of the new satellite TV channel "NTV +" was recruited.

Initially he was a translator, then he voiced small stories sports reporting... Then he took him as a correspondent for his author's program "Football Club". He commented on the first match in 1998. It was a recording of the match between Italy and Norway at the World Cup in France. A year later, he was hired by TNT and NTV + Football TV channels.

From time to time he replaced Vasily Utkin and hosted several issues of the Football Club. In addition to television, he became the host of sports programs at the Silver Rain radio station. Like most of the country's best sports commentators, today he is a permanent employee of Match TV.

Victor Gusev

What sports commentators are there on famous channels? “Russia-1” and “Channel One” are a special brotherhood. Working for these broadcasters is the ultimate achievement for most sports commentators. V. Gusev has been collaborating with television since 1992, first as a freelance employee and host of the programs “Goal” and “Sport Weekend”, which were aired on Channel One.

The first football match that he commented on was the match between Spartak Moscow and Galatasaray in the UEFA Champions League. Since 1995, he has become a staff member of Channel One. By the way, it was he who, since 1996, has been the leading sports block in information programs"News" and "Time".

Then he became the head of the Directorate of Sports Programs of the First Channel. Since 2004, he is the author and host of the author's program "On Football with Viktor Gusev". He also took part in the popular projects “The Last Hero” (third part), “Lost” and the games “Big Races.” In addition to sports programs, he also hosted the culinary TV game “The Lord of Taste.” He received the TEFI award three times, is vice president Federation of Sports Journalists of the Russian Federation.

Dmitry Guberniev

This sports commentator in Russia is not only one of the most famous, but also one of the most beloved TV presenters in the country. Today he is a staff member of the Match TV channel, as well as the editor-in-chief of the United Directorate of Sports TV Channels of the All-Russian State Television and Radio Broadcasting Company. He was twice a laureate in 2007 and 2015. He got on television in the early 90s, taking part in a competition for the position of a sports commentator for the new satellite TV channel NTV +, and then TV-6. His teacher in stage speech was Svetlana Kornelievna Makarova, who was the teacher of Ekaterina Andreeva, Leni Parfyonov, Mikhail Zelensky and Tina Kandelaki. Today he himself teaches according to her methodology and teaches young commentators.

How to gain popularity

Since 2000, Dmitry Guberniev became a sports commentator on the Russia-1 TV channels, and then Sport, which later became known as Russia-2. Every year his popularity as a presenter grew. The whole country fell in love with the “two-meter big dyldu”, as he calls himself. Today he is the best sports commentator ("Russia-2" is the channel that can be called his home).

Enough long time he was co-host of the morning program “ Good morning, Russia!" and other gears. Since 2007, he has had his own author's program - "Sports Week with D. Guberniev", as well as the program "Biathlon with Dmitry Guberniev", which he hosted for 5 years. You probably remember him as a participant in "Fort Boyard" - one of the most interesting and extreme games in the world. Since 2000, he has been a columnist for the Olympics diaries.

Sports commentators of Russia

In this article, we have presented the four most popular sports columnists in the country. Their voices are familiar to many of our compatriots, and not only, because the sports programs that are broadcast on Russian TV channels are also watched by residents of the CIS countries, and these men have become very dear and beloved. As for their faces, we see them less often, but nevertheless they are also recognizable. The sports commentators of Russia, whose photos we presented in the article, managed to achieve popularity with their hard work, as well as their love and dedication to sports.

Assessments of the quality of the work (and therefore the popularity) of football commentators are extremely subjective, so you need to decide what the ideal commentator should be? It is believed that a football professional must:

- actively follow the game on the field and be interested in what is happening;

- leave comments in an optimistic manner, without whining and lamentations;

- be able to draw attention in a few seconds in case someone accidentally got on the channel;

- be competent in your issue, devote time to studying statistics.

Based on these criteria, it is possible to determine the following, popular among viewers, football commentators.

Konstantin Vybornov

Konstantin is a football commentator whose reporting is lively and dynamic. The manner of commenting is distinguished by emotionality and stretching of phrases in a scoring situation. For example, "Udaaaaaar!" etc. However, not this Vybornov was remembered by the viewers, but his puns with the names of the players: "According to the rules of good Tony, the ball should have been in the goal."

Alexey Andronov

Andronov quite competently and competently comments on football matches. The manner of commenting is very energetic, but a significant drawback is the categorical and peremptory statements in the statements during the match. On NTV + he prefers to comment on the Bundesliga. Once at the match “Wolfsburg” - “Rubin” paid so much attention to the Germans that viewers had suspicions about who Andronov was really rooting for.

Vasily Utkin

As one of the most popular football commentators, Vasily Utkin fully justifies people's love... He can make a real show out of any match, even the most boring and ineffectual. With an excellent understanding of football, he is also a subtle psychologist. Therefore, most viewers like his style of commenting. However, for the last 2-3 years, he began to lose ground, focusing not on the game itself, but on his own wit.

Georgy Cherdantsev

George is the most emotional of the presented commentators. Because of this, it is very popular, especially among young people. He consolidated his position as a professional commentator after the victorious for Russia quarter-final of Euro 2008 against Holland. After that game, such phrases as: “Kolodin is a terrible cannon”, “I’ll finish everything now” left the people. He is a passionate fan of “Spartak”, for which he played from 1982-89.

Yuri Rozanov

Yuri Rozanov is the best football commentator-analyst with the rich vocabulary and literate colloquial speech... The assessment of what is happening is extremely balanced, controversial judgments are uncharacteristic for Rozanov, as are emotional and hysterical screams. However, with its intonation it is able to convey the tension of the current moment. Rozanov is prone to analytics and delving into statistical data, which may seem boring to an unprepared viewer.

Alexander Elagin

An experienced and qualified football commentator with over 15 years of experience. Especially fond of English football, knows almost all the major players, the history of the clubs and the appearance of the teams. He has repeatedly demonstrated his encyclopedic knowledge to viewers. So, because of the pouring rain at the match “Horsham” - “Swansea”, he talked about each player “Horsham” and about the peculiarities of life in the English countryside.

Vladimir Stognienko

Possesses almost all the qualities that an ideal football commentator should have. He has excellent knowledge of football, understands the nuances of the game. Positions himself as his guy who will not bother the viewer with deep analytics, uses a simple vocabulary. He jokes, but in moderation, and most often successfully.

Perhaps the only thing that distinguishes the work of a journalist during the TAM and HERE Games is the effect of presence.

Do not take what has been said to be obvious - I mean not only the possibility of attending a competition. Excitement from a constant, never-ending adrenaline overdose. As soon as one finished playing, others started. We just won in badminton, and then there was wrestling, we only won gold in judo, and then there was gymnastics. And everyone is ours, everyone is important, everyone is fighting, and everyone is for each other. I was in Olympic Village, and saw how our people, coming to the team headquarters, ask each other about the results, how they all get sick, and even, if possible, look ...

When you are there, only if you are not a correspondent, you do not see much, working at the IBC - International Broadcasting Center, but you see everything - because on every corner there are multichannel Olympic television monitors, and the whole team of the channel from time to time gathers at some then from the screens, freezes, and looks - then at the picture from the pool, then - from the carpet ...

Correspondents are lucky. Their work is very hard. They see only a few species - where they will be sent, they see it alive, and someone is lucky to be present at victories, and someone at dramas or defeats. But they are hardly the busiest people at the Games (except for athletes). They will tell about themselves better, but the short experience that I have myself allows me to say - it's cool to see everything for yourself :)

Do you know how funny it is when a correspondent leaves IBC in the morning with a parting word to “bring gold”, and “brings” it in the evening with a sense of accomplishment! And he is happily greeted by his colleagues, and even more so when the correspondent is not “profile”, not - like Taras Timoshenko on volleyball or Olya Bogoslovskaya on athletics, and so - unexpectedly, where they did not really believe. WITH table tennis, there, let's say ...

And this also applies to commentators. Honestly, I walked proud to the point of impossibility after the women's tennis tournament, brazenly declaring: "Well, I did everything I could!" You understand, this is, like, I took all three places :)

Comment on sport competitions- this is art. During the reportage, viewers and listeners should not even for a second feel that the commentator can think about something other than this game. This means that every time it is an image, reincarnation, theater. TV commentator is a public profession. Therefore, a person must be educated, well-read and be sure to have a good command of the Russian literary language.

For a commentator, the speed of thought should outstrip the speed of speech, just as the speed of light outstrips the speed of sound. This is a normal physical law that should work for a commentator as well.

Sports commentators often work together. This is especially important for those sports where during the broadcast there are few spectacular events and commentators are forced to tell things that are not directly related to what is happening on the screen: history, news, etc. (for example, Formula 1).

Sports commentators are completely separate and to some extent unique phenomenon in the world. Russian commentators very often perform two functions at once - their immediate, and at the same time amuse the viewers with humor 🙂

The profession of a commentator is very young, it was created in the middle of the last century. Most often, former professional athletes came to it. This is understandable: who, besides them, is fluent in the terminology and is able to notice critical moments? But the famous commentator of the 50s Kote Makharadze was a professional ... artist! But how the sports fans listened to his reports! And what are his pearls, which have long gone to the people:

- The side referee accepts beautiful poses... He may have studied ballet before.

- And the rivals of the Greeks came full of Papadopoulos. They can now go Zagorakis!

Sports commentator is one of those professions that has never been taught anywhere. So, the pioneer of sports radio reporting Vadim Sinyavsky in his youth worked as a pianist in Moscow cinemas. The first woman commentator Nina Eremina and football player Vladimir Maslachenko came to journalism from big sport, and Nikolai Ozerov in his youth was torn between tennis and theater. These names are familiar to our parents. They still remember how in the evenings the whole family gathered at the little TV set and watched with bated breath the game of their favorite team. Well, those who did not have a TV turned on the radio louder. It was the commentator's golden hour! He described what was happening on the pitch so emotionally that no broadcast was needed!

Nikolay Ozerov

Nikolai Ozerov was born on December 11, 1922 (pictured) - Honored Master of Sports, 24-time USSR tennis champion, People's Artist of Russia, famous sports commentator. Nikolai Nikolaevich appeared in the media structures by accident. The second sports voice of the country after Vadim Sinyavsky - Viktor Dubinin for the 1950 season was appointed the head coach of Dynamo Moscow (there were times!), And the radio leadership, being in search of a candidate for the vacant position, heard Ozerov's voice. He was offered, he agreed ... 1981. This day has come to an end great era... Muhammad Ali spent his the last fight in the ring.

Georgy Georgievich Sarkisyants

Georgy Georgievich Sarkisyants (March 16, 1934, Moscow - May 5, 2011, Moscow) - Soviet and Russian sports journalist and TV commentator, known for the television show "Football Review", television and radio commentary on major sports events. He hosted sports programs on radio and television, took part in the coverage of many Olympic Games, world and European championships. He became the first sports commentator to receive the title of Honored Worker of Culture of Russia.

As the Soviet footballer and TV commentator Vladimir Pereturin said, Sarkisyants was a real professional and talented commentator with whom modern journalists cannot be compared.

“I worked with him for about 30 years. One of those commentators for whom work was a profession left, he was a real commentator. He has commented on many sports: figure skating, volleyball, football. It was a person who was not left. For Sarkisyants, Ozerov, Nabutov, Sinyavsky, Mayorov, Semyonov, Maslachenko, this was a profession, and now for modern commentators this is a position.

V figure skating he was a hero, no one led him better. He not only made the reports interesting, he also promoted the excellent Russian language. He was one of those who hosted the sports block in the Vremya program. Now the sport has been thrown out of there, the language has become pale, there is no one to comment on. We were like-minded people in the coverage of football, it was something special for us, we lived as a profession, "said V. Pereturin

Gennady Orlov

- Sports commentator, host of the program "Five About Football". Work experience in television - 36 years. Before the change of leadership on Channel 5, he commented on all matches with Zenit. He is a real fan of the St. Petersburg club and the Russian national team. However, the fans have mixed impressions. The main hallmark Gennady Orlov is a frequent confusion of football players on the field. Favorite phrase: "Iiii the ball flies into the goal!" Most of all, I remembered the fans from the match ¼ of the European Championship Russia - the Netherlands, in which Orlov confused almost all Dutch footballers, cheated with comments and confused with the time: "Arshavin blow of III ... taking out with his long hand Der Var Sar transfers the ball to the corner"

Funniest comments:

"Before the start of the match - five minutes, the score is still 0: 0"

"This is Stefan Kiessling ... Yes, sour, very sour, guys!"

"The game is so tense, 1-1 .. but the lineups have to be said!"

“Pogrebnyak is slipping again. And in St. Petersburg, he did not slip. This is because it was raining in Spain yesterday. And in St. Petersburg there was no rain. But rain should not affect a good lawn, but the lawn is good here. "

"Tymoshchuk and Denisov are bumps in a swamp in Zenit's football game."

Vladimir Maslachenko

Commentator on the NTV-Plus Football TV channel, fan of Spartak, cheerful and positive. He is one of those few who is able to turn the most boring match into a real spectacle. Favorite phrase: "" Now I will explain to you what my thought was ""

Funniest comments:

"Spartak scored as many goals as Inter - none."

"The goalkeeper does not have a cap, bald spots are in fashion these days."

"I did everything, just forgot to hit ... well, no wonder - you can run so much, you can forget your name."

"We do not have time to show penalties, so we will do everything to avoid them."

Nina Alekseevna Eremina

Soviet athlete, world champion, three-time champion Europe, five-time champion of the USSR. Honored Master of Sports of the USSR (1959). Since 1961 she worked as a sports commentator at the All-Union Radio. The first broadcast was held together with radio commentator Boris Valov on June 10, 1961.

In 1974 she began working at the State Television and Radio Broadcasting Company. She worked with famous commentators Nikolai Ozerov and Vadim Sinyavsky.

For 18 years she has commented on sports events on the Vremya program.

Nina Eremina has basketball. Nina Eremina of the past - Vladimir Gomelsky of the present. And probably irreplaceable people in understanding the game of basketball. If you wanted to understand and understand this cleverest game - listen to Eremina's report. She was quick, interesting, detailed enough, and she herself was able to do a lot on the set.

Victor Gusev

Sports commentator for the first TV channel. He commented on the matches of the Russian national football team, international matches of the Russian national hockey team. Often he expresses his thoughts too harshly, for example, at Euro 2008 in the Russia-Spain group stage match, Viktor said that Shirokov is not a player of the national team's level. After that, the players of the national team asked to replace the commentator, saying that he was “not lucky” for the national team. V Lately his commentary career began to decline. Favorite phrase: "take care of yourself."

Funniest comments:

“Sychev, you have to beat - Shtayayayayayay! The ball hits the post! "

“Here… blow! I drew attention to him back in the hotel. "

Ilya Kazakov

Football commentator, host of the Football of Russia program on the Sport channel. Enough qualified specialist, however, he is often fond of the game and moves away from the topic. His calmness and passivity scare away many football fans. Favorite phrase: "What a good goal ... could have been!"

Funniest comments:

"Ignashevich cut off the team ..."

“Dzagoev trained very well. I have practiced so much that the shots are higher than the gate and the pass is not accurate. "

“It would be just right for the tattoo on this place to be done not for the goalkeeper, but for the defenders, on the back of the head to draw a pair of eyes…”

Ramazan Rabadanov

I could not help adding this cheerful Dagestan commentator to my list. Ramazan Rabadanov became widely known on the Russian Internet after one of the videos with his comments got on You Tube.

It was so funny that links to this video went viral. Ramadan comments on what is happening in a simple way, as if he is in the company of friends, which makes him stand out from all. Caucasian accent and endless emotions - this is Ramazan Rabadanov!

"Here they are. Scottish fans. Hooligans, alcoholics. How many people died because of them. "

"Pletikosa-Pletikosa stay at home and whip your braids."

"When the wedding is on the way, the funeral is postponed !!"

Grigory Tvaltvadze

Russian TV journalist, sports commentator on the Rossiya and Sport TV channels. He specializes in sports such as football, hockey and wrestling. Quite a lot of criticism is caused by Tvaltvadze's activities from fans on the Internet. The journalist himself takes this calmly, speaking negatively only about the person who led a blog on his behalf, containing sports analytics, on LiveJournal. One of his Internet ill-wishers, Grigory once forcibly sat down at the microphone and forced him to comment, after a minute and a half he began to stutter and asked to be left behind. Favorite phrase: "Well, we have not lost everything yet."

Interesting fact:

At the 2002 World Cup, Tvaltvadze, together with Alexander Bubnov, commented on the key Group B match between the teams of Nigeria and England. That day it was very hot, humid weather, which is why Grigory fell asleep right during the match and woke up only when he heard the voice of his partner.

Funniest comments:

"Now you watch a dangerous replay of a goal-scoring chance."

“Now the rules are strict ... The ear is offside - the whole person is already offside. But the hand is offside - there is no offside, because the hand is not played. "

“Borovski, a pass to Podolski. Almost all of the Moscow region is represented in this German national team! "

"I'll finish everything right now!"

"I do not understand what I am saying ..."

Vasily Utkin

The deserved bookmaker, an ardent opponent of fixing matches, a strict but fair commentator on the NTV-plus Sport TV channel, likes to ridicule teams that do not show decent football. Under his hot hand were such teams as Bayern, the England national team, and others.

Favorite phrase - "Play football"

Dmitry Gradilenko and Roman Trushechkin

“4 years ago in Beijing, Petersburgers had 1 gold Olympic medal less than others Olympic Games... Then draw your own conclusions. "

Viktor Nabutov is a sports commentator for the Leningrad television.

At the microphone Viktor Nabutov: "Hirawata is serving." Meanwhile, the ball hits the net, and the commentator continues in an even, calm voice, without changing intonation: "Yes, it really doesn't matter."

The famous sportsman, radio and TV commentator V.S. Nabutov was born on March 28 (April 10) 1917 in Petrograd. Since childhood, he went in for sports, played tennis, basketball, billiards. He played for the Leningrad national teams in football, basketball, volleyball, bandy and athletics. Already at the age of 17, in 1934, he received the title of Master of Sports in volleyball. But these merits do not compare with his football achievements. In 1936, Viktor was invited to Dynamo Leningrad, where he played as a goalkeeper for three seasons, participating in the very first USSR football championships. For the "blue and white" he was such an indispensable person that in the dashing 1937 the leaders of the sports community even rescued him from exile. The Nabutov family was exiled to Orenburg after the murder of Kirov, and the head of the family, Sergei Grigorievich, was shot on false charges. One can imagine what it was like for the son of the "enemy of the people". In 1938-1939 V. Nabutov played for the "Electric" ("Krasnaya Zarya") team, with which he reached the USSR Cup final (1938).

His fine knowledge of sports, wit and artistry brought him immense popularity as a sports commentator. At first, he led football radio reports, and with the advent of television, he became a television commentator. It was new and very interesting and creative work... The TV commentator was supposed to help people, who are not always knowledgeable, to get in the know and figure out what's what.

It is generally accepted that a good commentator must have five main skills: a pleasant timbre of voice, impeccable diction, excellent knowledge of the subject, brilliant knowledge of the Russian language and an excellent sense of humor. Meanwhile, according to statistics, in one match even a professional commentator spends as much as 5% of his speech on reservations, some of which later become catch phrases.

Vadim Sinyavsky is considered the founder of the profession of a sports commentator in national football.

In 1939, the commentator was reporting from the stadium in Sokolniki, sitting in a tree. In the middle of the first half, Sinyavsky fell off a bitch and flew downward, again climbing a tree 10 seconds after the fall. " Dear friends! Do not worry! You and I seem to have fallen from a tree! ”- he declared without delay after the ascent.

The most popular Soviet commentator was Nikolai Ozerov.

Once commenting on one of the famous matches "USSR - Canada" blurted out in the heat of the battle in live: "Dangerous moment, goal, x ..., barbell!" The country, mostly stuck to TV screens, gasped.
And also the almost textbook "Sorry for being late on the air. We're here with a rally."
"They will play to the goal even until the morning."
"You can't make it alone, but Kharlamov is trying!"
"Shot on goal ... the puck broke ... Goal!"
"Sorry, technical problems outside the territory of the USSR" - It was this distracting phrase that Nikolai Ozerov used when fights broke out during hockey matches. The camera switched to a neutral fan, and the commentator talked about the events in the world of sports. In one of the reports, when the "duty phrase" was used again, Nikolai Nikolayevich even managed to talk about the foreign tours of the Soviet ballet.

A friend, student and like-minded person of Nikolai Ozerov, the Georgian commentator Kote Makharadze, also became famous for his funny phrases.

"While the ball is in the air, briefly about the line-ups of the teams."
"The seventeenth minute ends, and the eighteenth has gone instantly."
"And with the ball Oleg Blokhin - kick - G-O-O-O-L !!! But, unfortunately, the ball hit the post, it was out of the game, and in general, my assistants tell me that it was not Blokhin."

"Goalkeeper Vorobyov was ready for this and spread his legs in time ..."
"The goalkeeper does not put the ball into play and shows his partners to go further."

"Before the start of the match - five minutes, the score is still 0: 0."
"The Lazio fans are behind the left gate. They are all blue."
"The Danes' defender lifted his leg and the Dutch attack was drowned out."
