Career
editSemochko began his football career in Ukraine, playing as a striker for FC Lviv and Karpaty Lviv. In 2000, he moved abroad joining Russian Premier League side Uralan Elista, where he was expected to be a top performer.[4] However, the club finished bottom of the league, suffering a 9–0 defeat to Lokomotiv Moscow during the process. Semochko stayed with Uralan as the club secured an immediate return to the Russian Premier League.[5] He scored the first Russian Premier League goal at the Lokomotiv Stadium, an own goal in FC Elista's 1–0 loss to FC Lokomotiv Moscow on 5 July 2002.[6]
