Vladimir Proskurin


Vladimir Grigoryevich Proskurin was a Soviet Russian football player and coach.
He is most notable as the co-top scorer of the 1969 Soviet Top League with 16 goals. He was not awarded the top scorer prize as the Trud newspaper which was awarding said prize suspected that the last game of the season, in which he scored a hat-trick to catch up to Nikolai Osyanin on the scorers list, was fixed. Formally the decision was justified by Osyanin scoring in "more important" games.
