Russia hero Lev Yashin
To help mark UEFA's Jubilee, each national association was asked to nominate its most outstanding player of the past 50 years. In the latest of a series of articles looking at the Golden Player selected by the nations who have qualified for UEFA EURO 2008™, uefa.com remembers the career of Russia's Lev Yashin.
Lev Yashin's childhood ended in 1941 when the Second World War started. Sent to work in a military factory in Moscow where he played for its football team, he was spotted and invited to join the FC Dinamo Moskva youth side.
