Initially, the footballer played as a striker, later he had to reorient himself and realize his capabilities in defense. As a result, after many years of performance for the Spartak children’s team, the athlete became the basis.
In the nineties, FC Spartak was almost a permanent winner of gold champion awards. The team formed excellent: the red-white color was protected by eminent athletes. After receiving a serious injury by Andrei Ivanov, Ramiz Mammadov realized a real chance to get into the base. Romantsev put the industrious and purposeful player on the field from the initial minutes, while making the right bet on the young athlete.
Development
At one time, “Spartak” performed well in the Russian Premier League, the team has real fans. The strength team were rivals who could oppose interesting resistance, allowing them to demonstrate maximum skill. Optimally it was available mainly in European competition. Only in the 91st year, “Spartak” reached the 1/2 Champions League, the most prestigious club-level football competition. In the enchanting quarterfinals, Muscovites defeated the legendary “Real” with a score of 3: 1, but later did not resist the onslaught of the French “Olympic”.
In 1993, the UEFA Cup winners showed that Spartak could confidently beat the giants. The next victim was the English “Liverpool”, losing to “white and red” with a total score of 6: 2. Ramiz Mammadov, whose achievements were replenished with each match, was in reserve, but in the quarterfinal game against Feyenord he replaced Khlestov. That match was won by Muscovites with a solid two-goal advantage.
Career movement
1995 is remembered for the fact that “Spartak” in the group selection of the Champions League managed to realize the maximum victory rate. A significant contribution to this transformation was made by Ramiz Mammadov. Playing as a defender of the right flank, he managed to realize two goals, and also created several sharp goal combinations.
Before that, in 1994, Mammadov was sent to a backup team for preventive and educational purposes. Soon, the player returns to the team. Nevertheless, the “Spartak” leadership said goodbye to the footballer, leasing it to the Tula “Arsenal”, then the Samara “Wings”.

Regrettably, after returning from vacation the footballer was detained by border guards. His Portuguese identity card, according to Interpol, was listed on the list of stolen documents. Mammadov said that his receipt took place in an official office, and he was not aware of the criminal origin of the document. Despite this, the contract agreement was hastily broken with the player.
Ramiz Mammadov, whose career was on the verge of destruction, is returning to Russia. The main mentor of “Loco” Y. Semin takes the player into the team double with the condition that Mammadov must dial the appropriate form in order to get into the base. Soon Ramiz migrates to the Saratov "Falcon". The player’s professional football career ended in 2003.

Excerpts from the interview
When asked by journalists about how they managed to transform from an attacker into a defender, Ramiz Mammadov answered the following: “He played a striker at school, and in duplicate the first business trip fell to the annual tournament (Viareggio). There, coach Viktor Zernov allocated me a right-back zone. In the opening match, they managed to successfully connect to the attack and earn an eleven-meter, as a result, they drew. After returning to Moscow, Zernov outlined the situation to Romantsev, since then my place has been on the defensive line. This is due to the fact that attacking skills and the ability to quickly connect forward were useful in the area of the last defender."
In a hurry on the “Spartak” field at the beginning of a career
At school, one-year-old Ramiz scored a lot of goals. First, he played with coach Chernyshev, who was the goalkeeper in the post-war Spartak. Rotations occurred in the seventh grade: those born in August were transferred to a group led by A. M. Ilyin.
Mamedov’s standard position loomed under the attackers. Andrei Berlisev and Sergey Krestov, who died several years ago in a car accident, played in an attacking bunch with him.
In the junior teams, the athlete played the defender under coach Ignatiev. Frequent joint training was practiced. The backup team was sometimes stronger than the base, when Ramiz was there, Karpin and Mostovoy played with him. At the end of 1992, Romantsev released a football player in almost every match, although there was no shortage of defense players.
Game in Ukraine
Ramiz Mammadov is a defender who has brought a lot of benefit to Dynamo Kyiv. It so happened that, playing in Portugal, the footballer received a call from Surkis. He said that the ticket has already been bought and the player is waiting in Kiev. Mammadov signed a contract for a year, in a group European tournament, the team scored 10 points, which did not allow them to get into the playoff stage due to personal meetings with their closest competitor, Real Madrid.
In the championship, 27 victories were won, three draws, as a result, the Cup of the country was won. All that they could, won, and this is very good. The player of the eternal rival in the capital of Ukraine was met without aggression. After all, Ramiz didn’t just come from the street. He won the Russian championship five times. A certain role was played by the fact that before that, the people of Luzhny were sent to Arsenal.
The infrastructure in Dynamo Kyiv is an order of magnitude higher. The form was washed and laid out in lockers. The base in Koncha-Zaspa was gorgeous, similar was built later in Donetsk. The base at Dynamo was such that on the top floor even Ukrainian officials gathered. Surkis warmly and regularly received them.
Intrigue
There were several curious cases with Ramiz Mammadov. The Portuguese passport was mentioned above. But the following can be said about driving a car and meeting with traffic police officers. Even on the VAZ-2108, the athlete showed his friends how easily the steering column is removed. Moreover, this happened on the go and before the transport stopped by inspectors. Mammadov did not have time to insert the steering wheel back, threw it aside, and when inspecting the car, the police were very surprised at the lack of a “steering wheel”.
