Stages of football path

Tomasz Gubochan began to study sports from his earliest childhood. Despite the fact that he preferred football, he was often seen on tennis courts and hockey grounds of the city. Tomasch made his final choice in the seventh grade, when he was taken to the local football team "Zilina". From 2001 to 2004, he was a player in the youth structure of the club.

Since the 2004 season, Tomasz has been gradually drawn to the games for the main team. Basically it was a substitute at the end of the fight, when it was difficult to have time to show their best playing qualities. And then the club management decided that in order to acquire a full-fledged gaming practice, the player must be rented for a while, to the club where he will be the player of the starting lineup.

Such a command was found. It turned out to be a club from the town of Zlato Moravets "ViOn". Here, Tomáš Hubočan polished his football skills for five months. The time spent in rented the player an invaluable service. Returning to Zhilin, he quickly established himself as the main and irreplaceable player of the team, one of the best players in the defense of Slovak football. The season of 2006/2007 was marked by the first won club trophy in the form of gold medals of the national championship.

There is nothing surprising in that representatives of the leading teams of the European championships became interested in a promising player. The most realistic proposals for the player came from the clubs "Nuremberg", "Bochum", "Zenith". The arguments of the Russian team ($ 4 million) were more convincing. Since 2008, Tomáš Gubočan has become a player of the Zenit club. In this team, he played six seasons, held on a very different level 113 fights.

And if at first the head coach of the St. Petersburg club Dick Advocaat did not consider Tomas as the main player of the defense, then with the arrival of Luciano Spalletti the situation changed dramatically. He began to play in positions and right, and left, and the central defender. Gradually, Tomasz managed to win the competition for the place of the left defencist of the seemingly irreplaceable players of the defense line of Radek Shirla, Mikael Lumba and Bruno Alves. And only after joining the coaching post "Zenith" Andre Boas, he began to increasingly hold matches on the bench and in the end was forced by the leadership of the team to ask for a transfer. Currently, the player defends the colors of the Moscow "Dynamo". The union "Tomas Gubochan -" Dynamo "will be valid for three years, starting from August 29, 2014.

As soon as Russia began the championship of 2015/2016, how our hero was in the epicenter of the scandal. The incident occurred in the fourth minute of the match of the first round between the teams "Zenith" and "Dynamo". The players of the opposing teams Javi García and Tomáš Gubočan tried to reach the ball first to the penalty area after the corner. As a result of the struggle, midfielder Zenit struck the Slovak with his fist on the face, and he fell. On the replay it was clearly visible that this act was made by a football player of the St. Petersburg club on purpose.

The episode with Javi Garcia and Tomas Gubochan was considered at a meeting of the Control and Disciplinary Committee of the RFU in the presence of both the players themselves and representatives of their clubs. However, the event was ignored by Javi Garcia. He explained his action in writing. During the meeting representatives of Zenit organized a telephone connection with the offender, during which he brought his apology to the victim. As a result of the decision of the FTC, the penalty for the player "Zenith" is 1 match of disqualification.
