What is a hero? I think he is a sociable, funny man. He does not drink alcohol or smoke or take drugs. A hero must like his country and defend its interests. A hero should be strong, bold and help people. He must live for people and for his country.

My hero is Igor Akinfeev. Igor Akinfeev is a football goalkeeper for our Russian national team. In 2008 footballers of the Russian team won the bronze medal. Igor likes his country and defends its interests in football championships. Igor Akinfeev is a member of the CSKA football club. He is one of the best goalkeepers in the world. This goalkeeper had a trauma once, but then he became healthy and now he plays again. Igor Akinfeev and footballers of CSKA are champions of Russia and they won the UEFA cup in 2004. Igor Akinfeev is a strong man. Also Igor does not drink alcohol or smoke or take drugs.

I like football. Also I play football and I am the goalkeeper for the Ponino school team, so my hero is a great gamekeeper. That is why Igor Akinfeev is my hero.

Akinfeev is a great footballer and very good man. That is why he is my hero.
