Footballer Parfenov Dmitry: biography, achievements

Any football club is closely connected with the names of players who forged its fame. Football nineties in our country were marked by the superiority of one club - the Moscow "Spartak". Almost unconditional champion of Russia of those years, except for successes in the domestic arena, loudly declared himself and in European club football. Oleg Ivanovich Romantsev managed to create a real team of like-minded people who can achieve a lot on the football field. Andrei Tikhonov, Yegor Titov, Alexander Filimonov - without these players it is impossible to imagine a "romance" team. And the personification of the protective order of the Moscow club was Dmitry Parfyonov, a player who played in many positions at Spartak and remained his real leader forever.

Dmitry Parfyonov (football player): biography, childhood

The seventies gave our country a whole galaxy of magnificent football players. Another single Soviet Union was famous for its distinctive national schools: Russian, Georgian, Armenian and, of course, Ukrainian. It was in Ukraine, in the city of Odessa, on September 11, 1974, that Parfenov Dmitry Vladimirovich was born, the future star of Moscow's Spartak and the Ukrainian team. An ordinary working family, training in a regular Odessa school, the usual childhood of a Soviet boy, the same as the millions of his Soviet peers of that time. What separated Parfenova among peers? Fanatical love of football. Often at the expense of school hours, spending time with friends. Everything was subordinated to one - football.

The beginning of sports career

Football repaid the young Parfyonov reciprocity. Possessing by nature rather modest dimensions (height - 170 cm, weight - 69 kg), Parfenov Dmitry already in the children's teams took off all the questions about his professional suitability for big football. Over the years, the confident game of the young football player has not gone unnoticed by the coaches of the local "Chernomorets", which at that time was a member of the higher league of the USSR Football Championship. And already in 1991, at the age of 17, Dmitry Parfyonov made his debut as a member of the main team. He twice went on to replace the last USSR Cup in games.

Ukrainian football

1992 for Union football has become in its own way significant. The collapse of the Soviet Union was marked by the beginning of the history of individual Championships. Odessa "Chernomorets" in Ukraine immediately began to be among the strongest teams of the Championship, competing with the Kiev Dynamo. In the season of 1992, Dmitry Parfyonov was already thoroughly included in the number of the main players of the team, having played for Chernomorets 12 games. In the same season to Parfenov came the first team title: Odessa "Chernomorets" won the first independent Cup of Ukraine.

In total for this club Dmitry Parfyonov spent 6 seasons, having played 164 games and scoring 10 goals in them. Very good result for the extreme defender. Then followed the season in the Dnipropetrovsk "Dnepr". But even then it was noticeable that Dmitry Parfyonov outgrew the level of these clubs, and the invitation from a more serious team is just around the corner.

Moscow "Spartacus"

Before the beginning of the 1998 season, Parfenov became interested in two of the strongest clubs in the post-Soviet space - Spartak and Dynamo Kyiv. Everything went to the fact that Parfyonov will continue his football career in Kiev, under the leadership of Valery Vasilyevich Lobanovsky. However, Dmitry Parfyonov chose to move to Russia, to Oleg Ivanovich Romantsev. It was in the "Spartacus" Parfenov fully revealed as a football player. Once booked a place on the right edge of the defense of the Moscow club, Dmitry played for Spartak 125 matches, scoring 15 goals in them.

As part of the team, Parfenov became the four-time champion of Russia, the winner of the Russian Cup, the silver and bronze medalist of the Championship, repeatedly entering the number of the best players in his position. Who knows how bright and lengthy would be Dmitry's career, if not for the terrible trauma he received in 2002. In a principled match with the Moscow "Dynamo" Dmitry Parfyonov went to the game joint with Sergei Grishin and as a result received a double fracture of the shin with a bias. It took more than a year to recover from this injury. As a result, it was no longer possible to fully play at a high level in Dmitry. There were in his career, and "Dynamo", and "Khimki", and "Saturn", but it already was not that. Parfyonov did not manage to achieve his play form of the "Spartacus" times. And in 2012, Dmitry completed the career of the acting player, focusing entirely on the coaching path.

National team of Ukraine

The attitude of Parfenov to the national team began back in 1992. Bright debuting in the "Chernomorets", Parfyonov forced to attract the attention of the coaching staff of the youth team of Ukraine. Very nice composition with Shevchenko, Rebrov, Shovkovsky and could not achieve any major success at the youth level. Later, most of these players moved to the national team of the country, but there for the time being Ukrainians were disappointed. Several times the Ukrainian team successfully passed the group qualifying tournament, however, failures in the play-offs did not allow it to play at major football forums. Nevertheless, for teams of different ages Parfyonov played 41 games, scoring one goal.

Coach career

Having finished with the game career, Parfyonov could not break with football completely. In his active work in the coaching staff of the junior team of Russia, work with Ivanovo "Tekstilschikom." At the moment, Dmitry Parfyonov is the holder of the coaching license PRO. For the second season he has been leading the ambitious club FNL - Tosno. And if the first season in the club is difficult to call successful, then this year Dmitry Parfyonov's wards are seriously claiming a prize place, which means that they can play in the Russian Premier League.
