Victor Dyokeresh, the central striker of Lisbon's Sporting team, expressed his thoughts on the performance level of two strong English clubs – London's Arsenal and Manchester City. This was reported by Euro-football.ru. He emphasized that these teams play at a high level. Victor stated that he clearly felt their level in the matches he played against Arsenal and Manchester City. He noted that he had the fortune to play against strong defenders like Salih and Gabriel. The Swedish striker highlighted that competing with such high-level players is a great honor. Last season, Dyokeresh played in 52 matches for the Portugal national team. He managed to score 54 goals and provide 13 assists. His effective play played a significant role in his team's successes. Victor Dyokeresh's high achievements demonstrate his attacking strength and experience. He is also bringing great benefit to his team and intends to continue showing such performances in the future. This player is being closely followed by sports enthusiasts with great interest.

Viktor Dyokeresh was recently one of the most sought-after footballers among Europe's top clubs. This was reported by Euro-football.ru. Manchester United showed serious interest in his services, but ultimately Arsenal emerged victorious in this battle. Ordinary players are not called up to such prestigious clubs. In this article, we will introduce the biography of the Swedish footballer and analyze the reasons why he is considered one of the best strikers in the world. Viktor Dyokeresh was born in Stockholm in the Wenger family. His career started at the "Aspudden" club. In 2014, he moved to the "Brommapojkarna" team and made his professional debut in the second tier of Swedish football. In 2015, after the team finished in last place, Viktor spent his first full season in the third division. In the following years, his development accelerated. In the 2016/2017 season, he scored seven goals and helped the team return to the second league. In 2017, he scored 13 goals in 29 matches, aiding the team's promotion to the elite division. His good results caught the attention of Brighton, but he was unable to showcase himself there. Viktor played in the youth team, was loaned out, and never appeared for Brighton in the English Premier League. At "St. Pauli," he recorded 7 goals and 4 assists in 26 matches, which is a good statistic in the Second Bundesliga. However, he could not record any goals or assists in 11 matches at Swansea. The real breakthrough occurred at "Coventry." In the 2022/2023 season, he became the second top scorer in the Championship with 21 goals and 12 assists. The team was close to promotion to the Premier League but lost to Luton in the final on penalties. Then Viktor continued his career at "Sporting" and achieved impressive statistics. In the 2023/2024 season, he recorded 29 goals and 10 assists in the Portuguese league, and in the following season, he further improved with 39 goals and 8 assists. This demonstrates that he is a high-level striker. Dyokeresh is considered a player who combines technical skills and strong attacking characteristics. He is 187 cm tall, has a strong physique, and is capable of battling with opponents. He transitions to attack quickly and scores many goals. He primarily plays with his right foot, but his left foot is also good. Viktor is not only a finishing striker but can also play on the wings and reads the game well. He is skilled at finding his teammates, recording 8 assists this season and 10 assists in the previous season. He positions himself in areas where defenders do not see him, creating ideal passing lanes with his movement. Most importantly, Dyokeresh has the ability to score goals and provide assists in crucial matches. Many strikers perform well in ordinary games but falter in important ones, but he is not one of them. For example, he scored three goals against Manchester City. Last season, he scored 6 goals in 8 Champions League matches. He also plays effectively for the national team: in the 2024/2025 Nations League competition, he recorded 9 goals and 5 assists in 6 matches. In the 2022/2023 Championship playoffs, he scored the only goal against Middlesbrough in the semi-finals, and in the final, he provided an assist and scored in the penalty shootout, but the team could not reach the Premier League. This season, against Sporting's main rivals Porto and Benfica, Viktor recorded 3 goals and 2 assists in 6 matches. His results are high both in the short and long term, and he shows himself in the most important situations. Thus, moving to one of England's top clubs represents a new milestone for Dyokeresh, and he may achieve it. Transfermarkt ma

However, the choice was made in favor of "Orenburg," which seems a bit controversial." It should be noted that the Moscow "Torpedo" team was expelled from the Premier League for attempting to organize friendly matches in the 2024/2025 season. The "Orenburg" team will take its place. Last season, under the leadership of Vladimir Slishkovich, "Orenburg" finished 15th in the Premier League and was relegated to the lower league.

Famous footballer Edgar Davids, who played for Juventus in past years, learned that his acquaintance Nabila Habibi committed theft. This was reported by Euro-football.ru. The ad.nl portal provided information about this. According to the publication, Davids found out several years later that his painting collection had been stolen. He had entrusted the collection to a trusted person. For a while, Habibi also lived in his house. While Davids believed the collection was kept in a safe place, Habibi stole 37 paintings, pawned them at various pawnshops, and received approximately 30 thousand euros. In 2017, when Habibi was unable to repay her debts, the pawnshops gained the right to sell the paintings. One of the buyers saw Davids' name on the back of a painting and contacted him through social networks. After that, Davids filed a lawsuit. Habibi admitted to the theft. Earlier, she had faced problems related to criminal cases and had left her acquaintance after taking 3500 euros from him.

The general secondary education system in Uzbekistan is undergoing fundamental changes. This was reported by Upl.uz. The country has officially begun implementing a 12-year education model. This was announced by the press service of the Ministry of Preschool and School Education. In the near future, a normative legal document confirming these innovations is expected to be signed. This decision was made as part of a comprehensive program to reform the education sector. The program was presented to the president on September 8 and envisions a systematic renewal of all stages from preschool to higher education. The transition to 12-year education is being carried out to align with international experience. The results of the PISA study conducted in 2022 showed that in 85% of countries considered leaders in education, the number of school years is exactly 12. The introduction of the new model will allow adapting curricula to international standards and also enable students to be well-prepared for subsequent stages of education and vocational training. The updated system structure will be as follows: the first year is designated as a preparatory stage for 6-year-old children, which is considered part of primary education. Primary education will last a total of 5 years, including 1 year of preparation and 4 years of primary school. The next stage is basic general secondary education, covering grades 5 to 9 and lasting 5 years. The final 2 years constitute complete general secondary education, which will be conducted in schools, academic lyceums, specialized military schools, or technical colleges. To ensure a smooth transition process and create the necessary infrastructure, about 3,600 new schools will be built and more than a thousand state kindergartens will be opened. It is precisely in these institutions that the updated preparatory program for the youngest students will be piloted. An interesting point is that information about the transition to 12-year education had been actively discussed on social networks since 2023. However, at that time, the Ministry of Preschool and School Education officially denied these claims, emphasizing that the 11-year education system was in effect. The current decision shows that approaches at the state level have been reconsidered and there is political will to implement large-scale reforms. In the history of independent Uzbekistan, a 12-year education system has existed before. From 2010 to 2017, education was organized based on a 9+3 scheme, where students who completed grade 9 were required to continue their studies at vocational colleges and academic lyceums.
