Oleg Veretennikov
Oleg Aleksandrovich Veretennikov (Russian: Олег Александрович Веретенников; born 5 January 1970) is a professional Russian association football coach and a former international footballer who is an assistant coach with Kuban Krasnodar. He is the runner-up goalscorer in the history of Russian Premier League, and holds several other goalscoring records. BiographyMost of Veretennikov's successes have come with SC Rotor Volgograd, for whom he played in 1992–1999. During that time he scored 143 goals. He has also become the season's top goalscorer three times (in 1995, 1997, and 1998), which is also an unbeaten record. Veretennikov also holds a record for the most goals scored in one season (25 in 1995). He is also one of only three players (along with Viktor Panchenko and Mateo Cassierra) to score five goals in a league match (on 4 April 1998 against Shinnik).[1] Despite impressive goalscoring record, Oleg Veretennikov played only four unimportant matches for the national team. In 2000–2001 Veretennikov had two short spells with foreign clubs, and then played in several First Division teams. In 2005, he returned to Rotor, playing in the Second Division. In 2009, he played in FC Volgograd. In the end of 2009 Veretennikov retired from playing and became a coach. His son Pavel Veretennikov is a professional footballer now. Career statistics
