Soviet Union Lev Yashin 1

Lev Yashin, famous for always wearing all-black when playing, is arguably the greatest goalkeeper the world has ever seen. He played 22 seasons for Dinamo Moscow, the only club he ever represented, winning five league championships and three cup championships. Yashin was the first choice goalkeeper for the Soviet Union from 1954 to 1967. In that spell he won 78 caps and played in three World Cups 1958, 1962 and finally 1966, where the Soviet Union reached the semifinal much thanks to Yashin?s contribution. In 1956 he was a member of the Soviet Union?s team who won the olympics in Melbourne, and four years later he won the European championships. Shirt is complete with ‘YASHIN’ and the number 1 attached.
