"The joy of seeing YuriGargarinflying in space is only superseded by the joy of a good penalty save."
This quote defines the importance of football throughout the course of human history. Lev yashin, arguably the greatest goalkeeper of all time worded to us what a feeling it is to save a penalty.
Obviously, Russias first trip to space was deemed mans greatest accomplishment but the footballing world would disagree, wouldnt it Lev?
