Andriy CIG_STEPOVER Shakalov became one of the two winners of the Ukrainian eCup cyber football tournament powered by Nivea Men, getting into the national team of Ukraine with FIFA.

How to become the champion of Ukraine in the most popular football simulator from EASports at the age of 16 is gladly shared by high school student Andriy from Dnipro.

- My first game was FIFA 19. My path in e-football began with videos from YouTubers about FIFA. I recently received an offer from an e-sports organization and decided to dedicate myself seriously to this cause.

- Favorite mode in FIFA -UltimateTeam. All cyber football players, without exception, play it. This is a very interesting, interactive and competitive mode in which you can make a team of your dreams.

- My ideal team in FIFA: van der Sar, Mandy, van Dyck version of the team of the year, Maldini, Cancel, Vieira, Gullit, Mbappe, Neymar, Ronaldo and Ronaldo versions of the team of the year.

- Favorite tactical scheme: 4—2—3—1, because it is the most balanced.

- Favorite feint - McGeadyspincancel. Thanks to it, you can turn around very quickly and find free zones and operational space for attack.

- My playing style in three words - concentration, creativity, pressure.

- To play better, you need to play more often with stronger opponents. One day I changed my attitude to this game and started playing more and participating in all possible tournaments in my city. I also take part in many friendly online tournaments with players from all over the world.

- Recently at one of the tournaments I missed a funny own goal. My goalkeeper missed the ball, just not being able to take it. It happens.

- I became interested in real football for the first time in six years. I just saw the boys playing football and asked my parents to take me to a nearby school section. My father brought me to the first football match. Dnipro and Tavriya played. As I remember now, the match ended in a draw - 2: 2.

- I used to play in the youth academy of FC Dnipro, as a supporting midfielder. He dreamed of becoming an outstanding football player.

- My favorite team is Lyon, and my favorite football player is Neymar. I currently support Dynamo in Ukrainian football. I like their dynamic game. The best stadium is Dnipro-Arena!

- Zinchenko, Tsygankov and Bushchan are the strongest players of the national team of Ukraine. Legends of Ukrainian football that I am proud of - Andriy Shevchenko, Oleg Blokhin and Igor Belanov.

- The most memorable matches of the national team of Ukraine: victory over Spain in the League of Nations (1: 0), victory over Sweden at Euro 2012 (2: 1) and a draw with France in the World Cup qualifiers-2022 (1: 1). A very emotional game came out with the French!

- The goal of the blue-and-yellows that impressed me the most was Konoplyanka's shot at Wembley in the England national team's goal from outside the penalty area in the far nine.

- I expect a sensational performance from the national team of Ukraine at the 2020 European Championship!
