Artem Volodymyrovych Milevskiy (Ukrainian: Артем Володимирович Мілевський) (born on January 12, 1985 in Mazyr, Belarus) is a Ukrainian professional footballer of Belarusian descent. He played for Belarus in UEFA U-16 Championship in 2000 before taking Ukrainian nationality. Milevskiy is a forward for FC Dynamo Kyiv as well as the Ukrainian national football team.
He plays under the number 25 and has played for Dynamo since 2002 when he transferred from FC Borysfen-2 Boryspil.
He was part of Ukraine's 2006 European U-21 Championship Squad, which finished as runners-up, and was picked by uefa.com journalists as a member of the "Team of the Tournament" as a striker alongside the Netherlands' Klaas Jan Huntelaar[1].
Chosen as a member of Ukraine's 2006 World Cup Squad, he earned his first cap for his country's senior side in the 2006 FIFA World Cup on June 19th against Saudi Arabia, coming on as a substitute in the 86th minute for Ukraine's legendary Andriy Shevchenko. Ukraine won the match 4-0. In the second round match in which Ukraine faced Switzerland, Milevskiy was one of the three Ukrainian kickers who successfully scored their penalty following a grueling scoreless tie which spanned 120 minutes. Ukraine won the penalty shootout by a score of 3-0, but ended their 2006 World Cup campaign with a 3-0 loss to traditional powerhouse Italy in the quarter-finals.
During 2006 Milevsky became known for his cheeky Panenka-style penalty taking at major tournaments. He scored in this way against the Netherlands at the 2006 European Under-21 Championship in Portugal as well as against Switzerland at the 2006 FIFA World Cup in Germany. Recently on September 6,2007 on Dynamo Kyivs' 80th anniversary he scored a header in a 2-2 draw with A.C. Milan
