Peter Berzins

Peter Berzins (born 14th April 1991, Liepāja, Latvia) is a Latvian footballer who currently plays for Standard FC in Brunant.

Berzins began his footballing career in late 2009 at the youth squads of FK Liepājas Metalurgs. In 2010, he was promoted to the main squad. In the summer of 2012, he was bought by Standard FC in Brunant.

At Standard FC, Berzins has been an important player and a proficient goalscorer, known especially for his prowess at free kicks. In the 2012-13 Second League, though Standard finished last, Berzins scored five goals. In the the next season Berzins scored 14 goals (one less than top goalscorer David Lenser), as Standard FC won the Second League and were promoted to the First League for the first time since 2003. In the 2014-15 First League, Berzins has already scored eight goals; though, despite his performances, Standard FC is currently sitting in last place.

Since 2012, Berzins has been called up several times to the Latvia national football team, scoring his first goal in a 2013 friendly against Estonia.
