Life

Faqiryar came to Germany at the age of one with his Afghan parents and siblings, who fled the civil war in Afghanistan , and grew up in the Kattenturm district of Bremen . He attended the former Obervieland grammar school , where he also graduated from high school. After graduating from high school, he studies industrial engineering at the University of Bremen in the master’s course .

Faqiryar is fluent in German and Dari and has the Trainer B license .

Career

Club career

Faqiryar started his career as an F-Junior at VfB Komet Bremen . He later played in the youth team of Werder Bremen and FC Union 60 Bremen . For the 2005/06 season, the goalkeeper moved to Bremen's club division FC Oberneuland . There he was promoted to the Oberliga Nord as a master . In the league, however, he was ousted by newcomer Ercan Ates and came in the first season 2006/07 only to six missions. Therefore Faqiryar was awarded at the beginning of the 2007/08 season for half a year to the Goslarer SC 08 in the sixth class regional league. During the winter break he returned from the later promoted team to his home club. Now with more appearances, he was finally able to prevail as a regular goalkeeper at the end of the season. Although they were only ninth in the table in the season, FC Oberneuland was nominated as Bremen representative for the relegation, as the champions FC Bremerhaven did not get a license for the regional league . In the end, the promotion to the Regionalliga Nord was certain.

In 2009 he moved from Oberneuland to the Lower Saxony fifth division and champions VfB Oldenburg . Faqiryar made his debut on August 9, 2009 (1st matchday) against VfL Osnabrück II (1: 1). Except for a short time in the 2010/11 season, Faqiryar was a regular at the Oldenburg team. On May 18, 2011, he tore a cruciate ligament in the league game against TSV Ottersberg and fell out for the rest of the season and for the entire first half of the following season . Nevertheless, the goalkeeper was able to prevail again as a regular goalkeeper in the second half of the season. While the promotion to the regional league was narrowly missed in the 2009/10 season, this succeeded at the end of this 2011/12 season.

For the 2012/13 season Faqiryar was appointed vice-captain, and for the 2013/14 season, as the successor to Julian Lüttmann, he was even appointed the new captain. After a kidney stone operation at the beginning of the 2014/15 season, he returned for the games against SV Meppen (2: 1) and TSV Havelse (0: 1) before he had to sit out due to an adductor injury and subsequent hip problems. On November 24, 2014, Oldenburg announced that Faqiryar's contract, which expired at the end of the season, would be terminated by mutual agreement on December 31, 2014.

National team

Faqiryar made his debut in the national team's jersey on March 23, 2011 against Bhutan (3-0) in the AFC Challenge Cup qualification . In June 2011 Faqiryar was nominated as one of two goalkeepers for the World Cup qualifiers against Palestine , although he was recovering from a torn cruciate ligament at the time . In 2013 he was nominated for the upcoming South Asian Championship , where he was in goal from the second group game. In the semi-final match against Nepal (1-0), Faqiryar held two penalties from Rohit Chand and was named Man of the Match. After the 2-0 final win against India, where he was again named Man of the Match, Afghanistan became South Asian champions for the first time . After the tournament Faqiryar was honored several times: he was named Most Valuable Player and Best Goalkeeper. In addition, he was accepted into the Sportskeeda Team of the Tournament and named a "people's hero" by the population and President Hamid Karzai . For his special services, the goalkeeper was honored with the High State Medal of Mir Masjidi Khan, an apartment in Kabul and with prize money of 1.1 million Afghanis .

He also took part in the 2014 AFC Challenge Cup with the national team. In the end, they finished fourth after losing in the semi-finals against Palestine (0: 2) and the Maldives (7: 8 n.E.). He conceded a curious goal on penalties against the Maldives when Assad Adubarey tripped over his legs while running up. The video was on the video platform YouTube for viral hit . In August 2014 he was nominated for the Afghan U-23 national team , which competed in the Asian Games from September 15 to 22, 2014 . In the group games it set three defeats, which is why they were group last. Faqiryar has been in goal in two games.

Statistics and records

Faqiryar holds the record for the longest series without conceding a goal for the Afghan national team: during the entire 2013 South Asian Cup he only conceded one goal and remained clean for 324 minutes. It wasn't until the next but one test match against Tajikistan (0: 1) that Faqiryar's streak broke when Nuriddin Davronov scored the final score in the second minute. So Faqiryar stayed a total of 416 minutes without conceding and played in four consecutive games to zero. The old record was held by Hamidullah Yousufzai , who conceded a total of 251 minutes during the 2011 South Asian Cup . In addition, Faqiryar managed to concede just one goal in 619 minutes between September 4, 2013 and May 14, 2014. Faqiryar also played the most clean sheets in absolute terms; in 13 of his 23 bets he played to zero, which corresponds to a remarkable rate of 57%. He was also the only Afghan to cross the 200-minute mark four times without conceding a goal.
