Career and television
After a 2-year service in Africa, a journalist was taken to the post of editor-translator of the information department for foreign spectators. Such professional activity was far from the desire of a young man being closer to sports reviews. In parallel with its main work, Victor has always been aware of tasks for a sports editorial office.Gusev got into Tass in 1977 and served at his office for 6 years. He made business trips not only in the role of the translator, but also correspondent. In 1985, Victor had done a world journey, then changed the climate of warm countries to the atmosphere of Antarctica, where he went to the icebreaker "Vladivostok". Viktor Mikhailovich visited southern latitudes on it, where the Mikhail Somov vessel needed in salvation. Scientists fell into ice captivity and waited for help from compatriots. Victor Gusev should have covered the entire course of the rescue operation.
From the side of "Vladivostok" in unsuitable conditions in the sky, the helicopter took off, on which food and mail from their relatives were sent. Victor Mikhailovich and Victor Mikhailovich fell on board. So citizens of the Soviet Union found out about the salvation of scientists. From the expedition of Gusev brought photos that received the Interpressofoto Prize. The country noticed his contribution - the Medal "For Labor Valor" appeared in the collection.
After a trip to Antarctica, a young man fell into the sports editorial office of the information agency. As a correspondent, Viktor Gusev began to review water sports. He was present not only at the country's competitions, but also covered the European Championships, Peace, Olympic Games and Games of Good Will. In 1992, a sports correspondent was able to lead his first on television "Sport Weekend".
In subsequent years, the TV presenter traveled to all major world contests. So the professional activities of Gusev began in the role of commentator and the author of sports programs. TV viewers heard his reviews from the USA, European and Eastern states. The presenter perfectly coped with the transfer of information about the Olympic competitions in Nagano, Salt Lake City and Sydney.
On April 13, 1994, the first debut report of Gusev was held from the open match on football between Spartak and Galatasaram. In 1997, a commentator was taken to the state of Ort. From this time, the viewers saw it in the sports blocks of the "time" program. On the Ort, who later became the first channel, the lead led the Directorate of Sports Broadcasting, acquired a copyright project "On football with Viktor Gusev".
The transmission, according to the creator, was closed after the fall in the ratings caused by an uncomfortable flight time and the appearance of paid channels that granted the audience freedom of choice. Gusev not only told about sports news from television screens, but also was the editor of the color edition of the "Match", and was also a press attache of the Hockey Team of CSKA and the Russian Football team.
Viktor Mikhailovich perfectly copes with sports reviews, takes part in TV projects, and his presence in the "last hero 3" brought him a well-deserved prime sympathy. Football and hockey fans hear comments and forecasts of Viktor Guseva almost from all matches, which are illuminated by the first channel.
In 2013, the official website of Viktor Guseva appeared, on which information about the commentator was collected: biography, photos, video and contacts. Also here are fresh news about the participation of a man in events, sports events and television shows.
In September 2016, the TV host included the country's political life and turned out to be a trustee party "United Russia" in the elections to the State Duma VII convocation. In the spring of 2016, Victor Gusev became a commentator in an unusual sphere - at the Russian Cup on eSports covered key matches in the FIFA 17 discipline.
In conflicted interviews, Viktor Gusev shared his interview with journalists and fans with his own relation to new technologies. Sporting commentator did not share contempt and dismissive relationships, which a number of athletes and colleagues showed computer disciplines.
According to Guseva, there is a competitive spirit in the cybersport, which already makes such disciplines with full-fledged sports, not art or children's game. As a commentator considered, you should simply take it to appear as a faithful fact and help develop. Nevertheless, Gusev admitted that cyberphutball comment was an unusual occupation for him, and the rules of the game and the championship caused some perplexity.
For example, the fact that in the Grand Finals of the Russian Cup, representatives of both team-finalists - "Orenburg" and "Lokomotiv" - were not chosen by native teams, but foreign, and the same - "Real".

In 2015, in the final of the World Hockey Championship, the Russian national team gave way to Canadians. The head coach of "maple leaves" noticed that he was delighted when when choosing a commentator stopped at Gusev, considering this a good sign for the victory of the Canadian team.
State Duma deputies from the Communist Party offered to finish Viktor, who comments on the national team matches since 1998, for each loss of Russians. The General Producer of the First Channel One Konstantin Ernst told about bags of letters who sent outrageous viewers after the European Football Championship in 2008. Although then, in the match with Spain, the TV presenter, according to his own admission, only quoted the words about the loss, spoken by Igor Akinfeev.
This did not prevent a sports commentator to write an autobiographical book and release memoirs in such a name - "Nefarty".

"Commentation art, according to Gusev, is not specifically taught. But representatives of the writing journalism have a chance. It happened to him himself. And the fact that Victor was engaged in sightseeing projects, but from interest both to football, and to what revolves around this game millions.
