'''Andrey Valeryevich Tikhonov''' ({{lang-ru|Андре́й Вале́рьевич Ти́хонов}}; born 16 October 1970 in [[Korolyov (city)|Korolyov]], [[Moscow Oblast]], [[Russian SFSR]], [[Soviet Union]]) is a [[Russians|Russian]] association football manager and a former [[midfielder]]. He is the manager of [[FC Yenisey Krasnoyarsk]]. Tikhonov is well known as [[FC Spartak Moscow|Spartak Moscow]] and [[Russia national football team]] player.

==Career==
Tikhonov was spotted by the then-Spartak manager [[Oleg Romantsev]], while playing for Titan Reutov, in a game against Spartak Moscow reserves. Tikhonov quickly broke into the starting line-up at his new club, becoming a key player at Spartak soon afterwards.<ref>[http://www.kc-camapa.ru/cgi-bin/pls.cgi?n=5824&t=bio "Крылья Советов" (Самара) – Официальный сайт профессионального футбольного клуба]</ref> Tikhonov won a total of eight [[Russian Premier League|Russian League]] titles with Spartak, before falling out with [[Oleg Romantsev]]. He then had a short loan spell in [[Israel]], before signing a contract with [[FC Krylia Sovetov Samara|Krylia Sovetov Samara]]. In February 2001, Tikhonov was training with [[Southampton F.C.|Southampton]], even featuring in one friendly for the club, but no deal was reached, mainly because the player already had a running one-year contract with Krylia Sovetov at the time.<ref>[http://www.sports.ru/blog/tihonov/3505119.html Дневники футболиста / Sports.ru]</ref>

An icon among Spartak fans, Tikhonov is often viewed as an underachiever on the international stage. He made his international debut in 1996, in a friendly against [[Malta national football team|Malta]].

In early 2011, he announced that he would be returning to [[FC Spartak Moscow|Spartak Moscow]] but it was initially unconfirmed whether the 40-year-old midfielder would get playing time or whether he would simply be a coach. Later however, it was confirmed that he would be part of the squad.<ref>[http://www.eurosport.ru/football/russian-football-premier-league/2010/story_sto2687845.shtml Тихонов может сыграть за «Спартак»]</ref>

He then started for the red-and-whites in a cup quarter-final game against [[FC Krasnodar]] on 20 April 2011. He got a warm reception from the home fans and was substituted off in the second half. On 18 September 2011, Tikonov has played his farewell match as Spartak defeated his former team, Krylya Sovetov, 3–0. Tikhonov made an assist and participated in another attack that ended with a goal before being substituted just before the end of the first half.<ref>[http://lenta.ru/news/2011/09/18/farewell/ Spartak crushed Krylya Sovetov in Tikhonov's farewell match] {{ru icon}}</ref>

==Records and honours==
*Scored 8 goals in one game for [[FC Spartak-d Moscow]] in a 1993 [[Russian Second League]] 8–0 victory over [[FC Rekord Aleksandrov]]. That was a Russian professional football record for most goals in one game he shared with [[Sergey Maslov (footballer, born 1975)|Sergey Maslov]] and [[Gennady Korkin]] until [[Igor Kiselyov]] scored 10 goals in one game in 2001.<ref name="8goals">[http://www.sport-express.ru/newspaper/1999-10-04/7_3/ МАСЛОВ ПОВТОРЯЕТ ГОЛЕВОЙ РЕКОРД ТИХОНОВА]</ref><ref name="10goals">[http://www.sport-express.ru/newspaper/2001-05-22/4_4/ Игорь КИСЕЛЕВ: ВТОРОЙ РАЗ В ЖИЗНИ ЗАБИЛ ДЕСЯТЬ МЯЧЕЙ ЗА ИГРУ]</ref>
