10 legends that didn't get the credit they deserved

#6 Rinat Dasayev

Dasayev captained the Soviet Union national football team

This Russian goalkeeper is supremely underrated as he will always be behind the shadow of his predecessor Lev Yashin, who was arguably the best goalkeeper of all time. But Dasayev isn’t that far behind.

Dasayev had a great career with Spartak Moscow and Sevilla, but it was with the Soviet Union national football team that this goalkeeper left his mark, finishing runner-up in the 1988 European Championship and keeping an impressive 44 clean sheets in his 91 caps.

Today, the four times European Goalkeeper of the Year is a goalkeeper coach at Spartak Moscow and was also a member of Russia’s winning bid committee to hold the 2018 World Cup.
