In anticipation of this event, Lev Yashin recalls the people and the matches with which his career was associated - and the ridiculous goal conceded in the first match for the main Dynamo squad, after which he sat on the bench for 2 years; and hard training, returning him to the main team; and speaking for the Soviet Union national football team at the 1960 European Nations' Cup; and failure at the 1962 FIFA World Cup in Chile, which could put an end to his career; and the match for the world team on October 23, 1963 in London.
