Malyshenkov began his career in 1986 with Dynamo St. Petersburg in the Soviet First League.[1] He later played with Kirovets Leningrad, a club affiliated with the Kirov machine-building factory.[citation needed] After the dissolution of the Soviet Union in late 1991, he played in the newly formed Russian Second League with Smena-Saturn St. Petersburg in 1992.[2] After four seasons with Smena-Saturn, he remained in the third tier with FC Gatchina.[3] Following a season with Gatchina he returned to his former club Dynamo St. Petersburg.[1][4]

In 1999, he played in the Russian First Division with the newly promoted Spartak-Orekhovo Orekhovo-Zuyevo.[5] He made 11 appearances and recorded 1 goal in the second tier.[6] He later played with FC Metallurg Lipetsk.[3]

Canada

He went abroad to Canada in 2000 to sign with North York Astros of the Canadian Professional Soccer League.[7][8][9] He re-signed with North York for the 2001 season.[8] In the 2002 season, North York secured a postseason berth and reached the CPSL Championship finals against Ottawa Wizards, but lost to a score of 2-0.[10][11]

Managerial career

Ukraine United

After his retirement, he helped to form FC Ukraine United, which competed in the Ontario Soccer League (OSL), where he served as a player/coach.[12][13] When Ukraine United was granted a franchise in the Canadian Soccer League in 2016 he continued serving as the head coach.[14][12][15][16] Malyshenkov would secure a playoff berth for the club as they finished as runner-ups in the First Division.[17] In the opening round of the postseason, Ukraine would defeat Brantford Galaxy.[18] The club was ousted from the playoff tournament by the Serbian White Eagles in the next round.[19][20]

He re-signed with Ukraine for the 2018 season.[21] The club managed to secure the First Division title by finishing first in the standings.[22][23] In the playoffs, United faced Brantford in the quarterfinals and advanced to the next round from a penalty shootout.[24] However, they were eliminated by Scarborough SC in the next round.[25] He returned to manage Ukraine United in 2021 in the OSL.[26]

Vorkuta/Continentals

He was also named the head coach for FC Vorkuta in 2021.[27] In his debut season with Vorkuta, he led the team to a regular season title and won the ProSound Cup by defeating Scarborough SC.[27][28] He also led Vorkuta to the CSL Championship final but was defeated by Scarborough.[29][30]

In 2022, Vorkuta was rebranded into FC Continentals and he resumed his managerial duties for the 2022 season.[31] He led the club to the championship final for the second consecutive season where the Continentals successfully defeated Scarborough.[32][33]
