Source-derived summary

Vyacheslav Leonidovych Checher (Ukrainian: В'ячеслав Леонідович Чечер; born 15 December 1980) is a Ukrainian retired professional footballer who played as a defender.

International career

Checher made his debut for Ukraine on 18 February 2004 in an away draw with Libya (1:1). He replaced Serhiy Symonenko on 62nd minute.

After playing only 5 matches, in 2004 along with Serhiy Zakarlyuka and Oleksandr Zotov he was expelled from the camp of the national team with a scandal for violating the regime due tardiness. According to Serhiy Zakarlyuka, it may have been due to personal issues with coach Semen Altman. In interview to a local television program "Profutbol", Checher commented "Don’t think that we are some kinds of monks or robots who came to training, worked and went back. No, we are all living people, we all want to relax, restore strength". The Football Federation of Ukraine president Hryhoriy Surkis at a press-conference stated “Roughly violating all the norms of ethics, morality, good conduct and the laws of partnership, on the evening of the game with the Turks, Checher, Zotov and Zakarlyuka were not present at the recovery events on Friday evening”.

Editorial analysis

Why this record matters

“Vyacheslav Checher” is worth following because a concise public description often conceals a longer documentary argument. Here, Vyacheslav, Checher and Ukrainian provides the most credible route into that argument.

Evidence profile

The entry’s evidential value lies in the named roles, institutions and publications that can be tested against primary documentation. The source revision retrieved here is dated Nov 1, 2024. The linked authority identifier is Q2633409. 1 of 1 selected statements include explicit references; 0 carry qualifiers and 0 use preferred rank. The first chronological checks are 1980 and 2004.

Critical limits

A concise life account rarely captures disputed attribution, private networks or the changing language used to describe a career. The source lead contains qualifying language; that uncertainty should survive quotation, summary and reuse. Authority statements aid reconciliation but still require their own references, qualifiers and ranks to be checked.
