Club career[]
Flavius Domide started playing football as a child on the streets of the Pânceava neighborhood of Arad where he was born and raised.[4] He later went to play for the juniors of UTA Arad, a team where he would spent most of his senior career, having a total of 342 Divizia A appearances for the club in which he scored 75 goals, a competition in which he made his debut on 28 August 1966 in a 0–0 against Rapid București.[3][4][5] He was part of UTA's team that in the 1970–71 European Cup season eliminated Feyenoord who were European champions at that time.[3][4] Domide also won two league titles with the team and reached the 1971–72 UEFA Cup quarter-finals.[4][6] He spent the last year of his career playing for Vagonul Arad in the third division, helping them gain promotion to the second division.[4]
A book about Domide was written by Radu Romănescu and Ionel Costin, called Flavius Domide – copilul teribil al fotbalului arădean (The terrible child of Arad football), which was released with the occasion of his 70th birthday.[4][7]

Flavius Domide played 17 matches and scored 3 goals for Romania (19/3 including Romania's Olympic team games), making his debut on 6 November 1968 when coach Angelo Niculescu sent him on the field in the 77th minute in order to replace Nicolae Dobrin in a friendly which ended 0–0 against England.[1][8] His following game was at the successful 1970 World Cup qualifiers in a 2–0 victory against Switzerland in which he scored a goal, also he was selected by Angelo Niculescu to be part of Romania's squad at the final tournament where he didn't play.[1][3][4] He played 5 matches at the 1972 Euro qualifiers, managing to reach the quarter-finals where Romania was defeated by Hungary, who advanced to the final tournament.[1] Domide's last game for the national team was a 1–1 against Finland at the 1974 World Cup qualifiers.[1]
For representing his country at the 1970 World Cup, Domide was decorated by President of Romania Traian Băsescu on 25 March 2008 with the Ordinul "Meritul Sportiv" – (The Medal "The Sportive Merit") class III.[9][10]
