He started as a correspondent on NTV-Plus, in 2004 he ended up on Rossiya-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 (the All-Russian State Television and Radio Broadcasting Company did not have strong commentators then, 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 Italian series And, considering it more interesting English Premier League. A fan of CSKA (but actively hides this, preferring to say that, as a native Muscovite, he supports the local team), he worries about Milan and Boca Juniors. Ends the match with the unchanging phrase "Goodbye and good luck", apparently inspired by the George Clooney movie.

Strengths Stognienko is charismatic, his commentary irritates a minimum number of listeners. He jokes, but in moderation (which is rather good). His role is his boyfriend, who will not load the viewer with a deep tactical analysis. By by and large Stognienko does not say anything that the viewer cannot think of for himself. Rather than being clever, he would rather once again quote something close and understandable, such as the film "Courier" or the cartoon "Once upon a time there was a dog." He tries to be natural, to use a simple lexicon familiar to a simple Russian.

Flaw It can alienate sophisticated and demanding listeners who want serious analysis - Stognienko will rarely go into nuances and will rather limit himself to the traditional "good pass", "dangerous shot" or "bad cross".

Quotes

“Messi has finally become not a football figure, but such a standard of something ideal. He came home to his wife, tried borscht, 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”;

"Gerrard's brilliant pass, and Carroll took the ball like - I don't want to say the word" log "- a bar."

From the 82nd to the 89th he played for Spartak-2, but ended his career due to a knee injury. On TV since 1996. Supports Spartak Moscow. Perhaps the most odious this moment a Russian commentator who deliberately exploits his reputation.

Cherdantsev’s triumph was the commentary on the Euro 08 quarter-final victorious for Russia against Holland - several phrases went to the people (“I’ll finish everything now” (after Russia’s winning goal), “Kolodin is a terrible cannon”, “Arshavin! I beat a tree, more beat one tree ... "). After 6 years, they still take autographs from Cherdantsev and thank him for that game. And if before Euro-08 he was a strong, but average commentator, then in recent years he himself does not hide that he works for the Cherdantsev brand.

One of the first in Russia began to shout “go-o-o-o-ol” in the spirit Latin American commentators, however, he still does not succeed in pulling vowels for the same long time.

Strengths / Weaknesses Super-emotional presentation, sharp, uncompromising, subjective assessments, commentary at the level of pain - all this impresses one and exactly the same irritates others: Cherdantsev is one of those commentators who either passionately love or cannot stand.

Quotes

“I will probably order a car for myself to a special hospital right now”;

“So what, well, you think: so what, that he scored, but we still have time! Think you scored! Except from a free kick, you can’t score anything, the Dutch, also to me. ”

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

Fan of Jethro Tull and classic hard rock, Dynamo Moscow fan. At parting, he always says the phrase "Take care of yourself."

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

Flaws Gusev's main problem is that due to the lack of competition on the federal channel and the 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 an episode, which is why his comments often look like oatmeal on water.

Channel"NTV-Plus"

Former Amkar football player Konstantin Genich ended his career at the age of 28 after an injury and has since destroyed the myth that Russian athletes tongue-tied and on television they have nothing to do. 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, then he will give out together with a partner parody in the manner of the Spanish commentators).

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

Strengths Versatility: Genich can both joke and yell, and, using his football experience, competently analyze the game moment. The main advantage of Genich is that he is not shy about his mistakes and is ready to learn from them. Genich, like Stognienko, is his boyfriend, only in his case - a guy who was a professional football player.

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

The patriarch of Russian sports commentary, who is equally well versed in football and hockey. One of those for whom you can even watch the match "Shinnik" - "Tom", not to mention the World Cup.

He started his career at NTV-Plus, where he got after passing the first contest 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, commented on the finals of the Champions League and the European Championship. Since 2012, he worked on Ukrainian television, but in 2014, due to the political situation in Ukraine, he returned to Russia.

Rozanov was passionately, even painfully fond of stakes and, according to rumors, got into big debts because of this. All his life he was rooting for CSKA, which, unlike most commentators, he never hid. Until 1991, he actively participated in team trips. From foreign addictions - the Dutch national football team and hockey "Montreal Canadiens".

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

Flaws To an unprepared fan, Rozanov may seem boring and boring, and those who consider themselves experts may be annoyed by his mentoring tone and confidence that this or that episode should be interpreted only this way and not otherwise. After all, you can’t enter into a debate with him, sitting on the couch.

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 " football club". In addition to television, he became the host of sports programs at the Silver Rain radio station. Like most of the best sports commentators in the country, today he is a permanent employee of the Match TV television company.

Viktor Gusev

And what about sports commentators on well-known channels? “Russia-1” and “Channel One” are a special brotherhood. Work in these TV companies - highest achievement for most sports writers. V. Gusev has been working with television since 1992, first as a freelancer and host of the Goal and Sports Weekend programs that were broadcast on Channel One.

First Soccer game, which he commented - the game between the Moscow "Spartak" 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 was the host of the sports block in the news programs “News” and “Vremya”.

In addition to sports programs, he also hosted the culinary television game "Lord of Taste". He received the TEFI award three times, and is vice president of the 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 country's most beloved TV presenters. Today he is a staff member of the Match TV channel, as well as the editor-in-chief of the Joint Directorate of Sports TV Channels of the All-Russian State Television and Radio Broadcasting Company. Twice he was 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 channel NTV +, and then TV-6. His stage speech teacher was Svetlana Kornelievna Makarova, who was the teacher of Ekaterina Andreeva, Leni Parfenov, 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 has become 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 leader increased. The whole country fell in love with the “two-meter long pole”, as he calls himself. Today he is the best sports commentator ("Russia-2" is a channel that can be called his home).

For quite a long time he was the co-host of the morning program “Good morning, Russia!” and other gear. Since 2007, he has had his own author's program - "Week of Sports with D.

Sports commentators in Russia

In the article, we presented the four most popular sports writers in the country. Their voices are familiar to many of our compatriots, and not only, because sports broadcasts 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. Sports commentators Russia, whose photos we presented in the article, managed to achieve popularity with their hard work, as well as love and devotion to sports.

Today is three months since the new sports channel "Match TV" began broadcasting. We calculated which of his commentators is the most sought after by the management and spent the most broadcasts.

9th-10th place. Roman Trushechkin. 7 ethers.

Roman Trushechkin, who returned to work at NTV-Plus shortly before the opening of a new one, opens the top ten most sought-after Match TV commentators.

federal sports channel. Trushechkin's journalistic career began back in 1996, but in addition to experience, Roman boasts a memorable voice, ideal for the work of a football commentator. Seven ethers is an excellent proof that Tina Kandelaki also liked Trushechkin's voice.

9th-10th place. Georgy Cherdantsev. 7 ethers.

With the same seven airings, the emotional Georgy Cherdantsev is on the ninth line. His famous “I’ll finish everything now” and “buffoonery” have long become classics of Russian sports television, and Georgy himself is one of the most popular and sought-after commentators in the country. The veteran of NTV Plus is one of those without whom it was impossible to imagine new project called "Match TV". There is an opinion that Cherdantsev is Kandelaki's main favorite among commentators, but looking at this rating, you cannot say this. Although the ninth place also looks honorable.

7-8th place. Vladimir Stognienko. 8 ethers.

Vladimir Stognienko joined the new channel as one of the main commentators of the All-Russian State Television and Radio Broadcasting Company, and his achievement list speaks for itself. In addition to the final matches of the World and European Championships, Vladimir had a chance to work at the interrupted game of the national teams of Russia and Montenegro, where, as he himself admitted, “I had to comment on the stadium for two hours.” Stognienko has repeatedly confessed his love for the Italian championship and for one Russian club, whose name is still kept secret. Vladimir does not consider himself a particularly emotional commentator, saying that screams and screams on the air are more for the young. However, he still has his own signature. What is the song of the ChaiF group on the air of the match Argentina - Jamaica at the last America's Cup. Apparently, for such a non-standard approach to commenting, Stognienko was awarded the eighth line of this rating.

7-8th place. Nobel Arustamyan. 8 ethers.

Another big fan Italian football and personally Turin Juventus Nobel Arustamyan joined the Match TV team, being a commentator on NTV Plus and presenter on Radio Sport. On TV, he works on Serie A and Champions League matches. For ten years, I managed to enter the rating of commentators, whose voices we hear on football broadcasts most often.

5-6th place. Alexander Shmurnov. 9 ethers.

Veteran of the national sports journalism Alexander Shmurnov spent his nine broadcasts in his usual manner. The vast experience and unsurpassed style of broadcasting could not go unnoticed by Tina Givievna.

5-6th place. Konstantin Genich. 9 ethers.

The journalistic activity of Konstantin Genich began in 2006, when it became clear that the injury he received in a friendly game as part of Amkar, with further continuation football career incompatible. And the first place of work in a new field for Konstantin was NTV Plus. It is difficult to say how the further career of Genich as a football player would have gone, but in journalism Konstantin became a real star. The best commentator of the country in 2015 and at the new place of work has not lost the role of one of the most sought after in his field. Nine prominent broadcasts since the beginning of broadcasting "Match TV" is a quite solid indicator, especially when you consider that Genich's matches, as a rule, go to the most responsible ones. And last year, Konstantin had the honor of becoming the voice of FIFA 16 in Russia, along with his colleague Cherdantsev. So the trust on the part of Tina Givievna looks quite justified.

4th place. Roman Gutzeit. 12 ethers.

Roman Gutzeit, at 29, has already become the most active purely football commentator on Match TV. The rapid progress of the young journalist, apparently, made a strong impression on Tina Kandelaki, otherwise how else to explain 12 football broadcasts since the channel began broadcasting? At the end of 2015, Gutzeit was among the top ten commentators in our country, but in the future he will certainly aim for leadership in the ranking.

3rd place. Yuri Rozanov. 13 ethers.

Even before Match TV began broadcasting, there was information that commentators would be prohibited from working in more than one sport on the new channel. But life has shown that this is not so. Rozanov successfully combines the work of a commentator on football and hockey games. True, Rozanov has much more hockey broadcasts on Match TV than football broadcasts, which may seem strange to many of his fans, because Yuri has always been associated primarily with football. The former voice of the FIFA series in Russia worked 13 broadcasts, 12 of which were on hockey broadcasts.

2nd place. Denis Kazansky. 15 ethers.

Denis Kazansky, like Rozanov, comments on both football and hockey on Match TV. Only in the case of Kazansky, the ratio of the number of airs held in the two sports is approximately equal. Seven hockey games with eight football broadcasts - the statistics of a real all-rounder. Perhaps this quality Kazansky liked Tina Kandelaki so much, thanks to which we hear him on the air so often.

1st place. Alexander Tkachev. 22 ethers.

Alexander Tkachev has long been a voice Russian hockey and with 22 broadcasts is the main favorite of Tina Kandelaki. It seems that it was precisely with his hard work that Tkachev earned the trust of his senior management and, thanks to this, continues to be the most familiar commentator on Match TV to this day. The ability to withstand such loads, as in any other job, comes with experience. Alexander has more than enough of it, because Tkachev has been engaged in journalism since 1988.

The Match TV channel determined the list of commentators who remained in the state after optimization. This list does not include Vasily Utkin, Alexei Andronov, Kirill Dementiev and other commentators who worked for NTV-Plus. Georgy Cherdantsev, Gennady Orlov, Vladimir Stognienko, Konstantin Genich and Yuri Rozanov remained on the staff. This was reported by the R-Sport agency, citing its source.

“Not everyone has yet received notifications [of layoffs], including Vasily Utkin, Alexei Andronov and Kirill Dementiev, although they have already been called to the personnel department. Of those who have already received notices, we can name Vladislav Baturin, Vladimir Ivanitsky, Alexander Netsenko, Taras Timoshenko, Yolanda Chen, Mikhail Melnikov, Elvin Kerimov, Alexander Elagin.

An important point is that we are not talking about layoffs or dismissals, the transition to a fee-paying system of remuneration without a fixed salary is a purely voluntary matter. If the employee is against this, he can work for two months on the same conditions, receive payment of one salary and become completely free, or agree to transfer to work on new conditions. Moreover, if the commentator has around 15 work shifts, as we were told, then he will most likely repeat his current salary.

With full confidence, we can say that Georgy Cherdantsev, Gennady Orlov, Vladimir Stognienko, Konstantin Genich, Yuri Rozanov did not fall under the optimization, ”the agency quotes the words of an informant familiar with the situation.

On January 22, information appeared in the media that the management of Match TV had begun to optimize the staff. It became known that Vasily Utkin, Alexei Andronov, Kirill Dementiev, Alexander Elagin, Vladislav Baturin and Elvin Kerimov will be removed from the staff.

“Match TV plans to optimize the number of staff. Tonight, some employees have already received notifications. The channel's management intends to withdraw some of the employees, including some commentators, from the state. They will be asked to enter into contracts that involve payments only for the work actually performed: commenting on matches and conducting live programs.

At the same time, commentators will have the opportunity to work in other SM I without coordination with the channel administration. Optimization will affect at least half of the channel's commentator staff, ”a source working for Match TV told R-Sport.

The press service of the channel issued a statement explaining that the contracts of employees who are not 100 percent involved will be reviewed. These employees will be able to work in third-party projects.

“By the time the channel was launched in November 2015, about 1,200 employees of the combined editorial offices of NTV Plus and Russia 2 were involved in work on Match TV. In the process of work, some specialists have increased the area of responsibility and responsibilities, while others, on the contrary, have decreased. The first few months we worked in test mode. Now we are introducing the practice of working with personnel, which is used by many television companies.

Now some of our employees, whose time we do not use 100 percent, can freely work on other projects. The previous version of the agreement significantly limited this possibility,” the press service said.

Vasily Utkin, former head of the NTV-Plus sports editorial office, announced on Monday that he was starting to look for a new job.
