Tsimafei Aliaksandravich Dzeinichenka (Belarusian:Цімафей Аляксандравіч Дзейнічэнка; born November 5, 1986, inHomel) is an amateur Belarusian Greco-Roman wrestler, who competed in the men's heavyweight category.[1][2] He won a silver medal for his division at the2010 European Wrestling Championships inBaku, Azerbaijan, and eventually defeated Armenia'sArtur Aleksanyan for the gold at the2011 European Wrestling Championships inDortmund, Germany.[3] He also captured a silver medal in the same division at the2010 World Wrestling Championships inMoscow, Russia, losing out to Iran'sAmir Aliakbari.[4] Dzeinichenka is a member of the wrestling team for Dynamo Homel, and is coached and trained by Ihar Piatrenka.[1]
Dzeinichenka representedBelarus at the2012 Summer Olympics, where he competed in themen's 96 kg class. He defeated Egypt'sMohamed Abdelfatah and Estonia'sArdo Arusaar in the preliminary rounds, and eventually upset Albanian-born Bulgarian wrestler and heavy favoriteElis Guri in the quarterfinal match, receiving a total score of four points in two straight periods.[5] He progressed to the semi-final round, where he was defeated by Russia'sRustam Totrov, who scored a total of four points in two straight periods, leaving Dzeinichenka without a single point.[6] Because Totrov advanced further into the final match against Iran'sGhasem Rezaei, Dzeinichenka automatically qualified for the bronze medal match, but narrowly lost the medal to Sweden'sJimmy Lidberg, with a three-set technical score (2–0, 0–1, 1–4), and a classification point score of 1–3.[7][8]
