Yuri Nikolajewitsch Woinow ( Russian Юрий Николаевич Войнов ; born November 29, 1931 in Kalininski , † April 22, 2003 in Kiev , Ukraine ) was a Soviet football player and coach .

Club career

Woinow began playing football with a factory team before he came to Zenit Leningrad at the age of 19 via Zenit Mytishchi , where he was able to establish himself as a regular in midfield. In addition to his physical strength, he was also known for his shooting power, especially with free kicks from a greater distance. In 1955, the football association tried to move to a Moscow club, but Voinow was able to play at Dynamo Kiev despite threats of suspension . After several years in the middle of the table, they achieved the runner-up title in 1960, before winning the Soviet championship title in the following season. In 1964 he ended his active career.

International career

Woinow made his debut for the national soccer team of the USSR in September 1954 against the vice world champions Hungary . Due to his refusal to play in Moscow, he was then disregarded for almost three years and was therefore not part of the squad of the Soviet team that won the gold medal at the Olympic Games in Melbourne. From 1957 he belonged again to the trunk of the national team, where he mostly played on the side of Igor Netto . Woinow was the first Dynamo Kiev player to be used in an official international match. He took part in the 1958 World Cup, where the Soviet selection was eliminated in the quarter-finals against hosts Sweden . Woinow was chosen by the sports press in the team of the tournament.

He achieved his greatest success at the European football championship in 1960 , when he was European champion with the Sbornaja . In the final, Yugoslavia was beaten 2-1 in extra time, with Woinow initiating the decisive goal from Wiktor Ponedelnik . He played a total of 23 international matches and scored three goals.

After the active career

After his career as a player Woinow took up the coaching career, where he worked exclusively in Ukraine. His first stop was Chornomorez Odessa , which he immediately led to the top division and in 1966 to the semi-finals of the Soviet Cup. In 1967 he took over Sudostroitel Mykolaiv and also reached the cup semifinals here. After that he was in charge of Shakhtar Donetsk , Metalist Kharkiv and SKA Kiev . After Ukraine gained independence, he assumed a leading position in the Ukrainian football league.
