Geynrikh Alexander: 2006 Germany is my goal
The day was July 22nd, 2004. When Uzbekistan were lining up alongside Saudi Arabia in Sichuan Football Centre, Chengdu, China, in the second group match of Asian Cup, desirous to avenge their humiliating 5-0 drubbing at the hands of the three-time Asian champions in Lebanon four years ago, few expected that the job would be done by a teenager.
However 19-year-old Geynrikh Alexander scintillated after only 13 minutes when he scored the only goal. The CSKA Moscow striker gained possession in the midfield, racing down left before beating defender Hamad Al Montashari and blasting the ball home from 25 meters. His lone efforts secured an ideal victory for his side, plus a place at the quarter-finals.
Audacious scorer
One day before this exciting encounter, A Saudi journalist came to Geynrikh asking for his prediction of the match. “2-0 to my team, and I will score both goals.” His confidence and ease impressed the journalist, who later on wrote in a story “this is my first time meeting a player with such great self-belief.
But this was certainly not the first time for Geynrikh to show his finishing genius before a watching world. In last year’s FIFA Youth World Championship at UAE, he stunned Argentina in the second group match as he put his team ahead after only five minutes through a superb freekick. In the opening group meeting with Mali, he scored an equalizer in the second half but Mali went through with a last-minute strike.
His audacity as scorer was proved again in the all-important FIFA World Cup™ 2006 qualifier with Iraq on 13th October of this year. He sealed the victory by scoring the second goal for his side, sending Uzbekistan through to the qualifying finals.
“We have done a good job in the previous qualifiers and I believe we will do better in the final qualifying stage. My team have rarely impressed since winning gold in Asian Cup 1994 and now it is the time.” He told FIFAworldcup.com in a firm tone, “Our dream is 2006 Germany and we will make it.”
Cultivated under famous care
Born in Angren close to Tashkent, Capital of Uzbekistan, Geynrikh cut his teeth under famous youth coach Bekir Zeytullayev when he was sent to the Olympic Reserve School of the nation. His school mates included Juventus mid-fielder Ilyas Zeytullayev, coach Zeytullayev’s son.
After year’s hard training, Geynrikh grew up into a powerful forward of 182 centimeters and 71 kilograms. Alongside his best friend Zeytullayev, he attracted attention from top clubs of the country. In the year of 2002, he signed with Paktakor, three-time champion of Uzbekistan league. In the following one-year stint with the club, he had 34 caps and 9 goals as a teenager, which earned him the award of Uzbekistan Footballer of the same year.
His talents were not neglected by Heinz-Jurgen Geode, German coach of Uzbekistan youth team, who recruited him in 2002. His belief on the promising player soon paid off as Geynrikh scored 7 goals in 12 preliminaries of AFC Youth Championship, also served as qualifiers for FIFA Youth World Championship. In the last do-or-die qualifier with Qatar, Geynrikh’s hat-trick sent his side through to grab a spot at UAE 2003.
Great expectations
The prodigy’s talents were detected even before he moved to Russian league powerhouses CSKA Moscow. At the end of 2002 he took one-week trial with Bundesliga side Bochem but he later rejected a half-season move on-loan and then joined CSKA Moscow in January of 2003.
“In Bochem I would have to spare much time to learn new language and get adaptable to the new environment, while in Moscow I have only one thing to do-concentrating on football. I am still young and need to improve my skills good enough before moving to top European clubs.” He explained.
“But I admire Bochem as this is a great club and in the future it may be good to move there, as both my father and uncle live in Germany.” Said the striker with half German origin.
But he once revealed his another dream of joining his best friend Zeytullayev in Juventus as saying, “He is my best friend as we were trained and educated by his father together and grew up together. We had a lot good time together. I hope one day we can reunite again.”
And for a young man with talents and expectations as Geynrikh, there will be no dream that he feels difficult to realize.
