International career He scored his first goal for Kazakhstan on 1 April 2009 in a 5–1 defeat to Belarus in a World Cup qualifying match. In his next appearance, he fouled England striker Emile Heskey to concede a penalty in a 4–0 defeat.
Even so, he created a shock in UEFA Euro 2016 qualifying by scoring the goal to take the lead over the World Cup's eventual third place team Netherlands in the Amsterdam ArenA. Kazakhstan eventually lost 1–3, but it marked for the first time ever a Central Asian side had taken the lead over the world's strongest teams.
