}} Pietro Vierchowod ((:ˈpjɛtro ˈvjɛrkovud), (ウクライナ語:Петро Іванович Верховод), (ロシア語:Пётр Иванович Верховод); born 6 April 1959) is an Italian former footballer who played as a defender, and a current manager. He also represented the Italian national side during his career, and was most notably a member of the Italian squad that won the 1982 FIFA World Cup. Widely regarded as one of the greatest Italian centre-backs of his generation, during his playing career he was nicknamed ''lo Zar'' (''the Tsar'') because of his ability, physicality, and Ukranian descent; he was the son of a Ukrainian Red Army soldier. A tenacious and physical player, who possessed great pace, Vierchowod was considered one of the toughest Serie A defenders of the 80s and the 90s, due to his immense strength, aggression, tight marking, and hard tackling. His speed, anticipation, and ability to read the game enabled him to break down opposing plays, win back possession, and intercept loose balls; these attributes also allowed him to excel in the zonal marking system.〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www.storiedicalcio.altervista.org/vierchowod-pietro.html )〕〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://archiviostorico.corriere.it/1998/gennaio/15/Vierchowod_adesso_dedico_Balbo_co_10_9801153340.shtml )〕〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www.magliarossonera.it/protagonisti/Gioc-Vierchowod.html )〕 ==Club сareer== Vierchowod was a man-marker (centre-back). He started his professional football career for Como, before moving to Fiorentina. However, his first successes came when he moved to Roma, winning a Serie A ''scudetto'' in 1983. Then he moved to Sampdoria, with whom he won four Italian Cups, one European Cup Winners' Cup and another ''scudetto'' in 1991. In 1995 he signed for Juventus, where he acted as an experienced defender and won his only UEFA Champions League in 1996 at the age of 37. He played the final in Rome against Ajax which Juve won on penalties. He then moved on to Milan and Piacenza, for whom he continued to play regularly despite being 41 years of age. He eventually retired in 2000. Vierchowod played 562 Serie A matches, being fifth only to Paolo Maldini, Gianluca Pagliuca, Dino Zoff and Javier Zanetti. Talking to Argentine magazine ''El Gráfico'', Argentine footballer Diego Maradona dubbed Vierchowod his toughest opponent,〔http://www.elgrafico.com.ar/2008/09/10/C-120-basile-se-olvido-de-los-codigos.php?vv=1&vote=2〕 stating that "() was an animal, he had muscles to the eyelashes. It was easy to pass by him, but then when I raised my head, he was in front of me again. I would have to pass him two or three more times and then I would pass the ball because I couldn't stand him anymore". Gary Lineker also revealed in an interview with ''FourFourTwo'' that Vierchowod was "the hardest defender he ever faced" adding "he was absolutely brutal and lightning quick. He gave me one or two digs." 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Pietro Vierchowod」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
