Lev Yashin was not easy to beat

The man, the myth, the legend.. Lev Yashin.
Nicknamed "The Black Spider", this man remains the only goalkeeper who won a Ballon d'Or.
Great positioning, reflexes, reactions and important saves.
He is an inspiration to all goalkeepers and it is easy to understand why.

When (some) Messi fans said Dibu Martinez is the best goalkeeper of all time, they forgot Lev Yashin exists.

[@tirinsplay]

I remember watching him in the 1966 world cup. He was remarkable, despite West Germany beating them in the semifinals. Best goalkeeper of the 66 tournament and his era.

@@ImJDre_1337 Nah I just want to see more videos of him saving some difficult goals. I just wanna see before my own eyes if he's actually better than Neuer, Casillas, Buffon, Kahn or not.

[@ImJDre_1337]

@@norpriest521 it's very wrong to compare footballers of different eras. Seems Yashin was that good he even won the golden ball and his playstyle reminding Neuer's one that was unusual with combo of libero position and quiet good goalkeeping. Keepers like Yashin appeared pretty recently so my words confirm my point. There's many videos of Yashin saves. Search the Russian source videos, not foreign.

[@dwightcrichton3246]

The first goalkeeper I ever saw save a penalty in a game - not a common thing back in the day. Of course much more common now a days. He is truly a legend.

[@davidmichaels8934]

I remember when at the England vs The Rest of the World game at Wembley in October 1963, Yashin was in goal for the Rest of the World team in the 1st half, a cross from the English left wing was met by the England Centre-forward Bobby Smith, with a firm header, Yashin was at the near post, so he had to throw himself from that side of the goal to tip Smiths header over the bar! One of the best saves that I have ever seen, on a par with Gordon Banks save, to deny Pele in the World Cup in Mexico 1970!

[@joekavanagh7171]

The Rest of the World only lost that game after Yashin was replaced by Soskic whose mistake led to England's winning goal scored by Greaves.

You can't recognize how good players are from older times, unless they are legends. This guy is obviously great, adding the fact that this was 50+ yrs old, it means he is a certified legend in this game. Pele has the same feeling, watching him being amazing back in that time and place, means he was something else.

He not only won the Ballon d'Or and besides multiple Goalkeeper of the year awards, he won the title of Goalkeeper of the 20th century. He also was in the Allstar team of said century. Century...! the most stunning for me was that he also played as a professional goalkeeper in hockey. Wtf. In Germany he was mostly called "The Black Panther".
