One of the greatest goalkeepers in the history of world football: "Black Spider" Yashin In 1994, FIFA established the World Cup Best Goalkeeper Award for the first time to recognize the best goalkeeper in each World Cup. "Black Spider" crawls out of the ice hockey rink Lev Yashin was born in Moscow on October 22, 1929, to a factory worker.
In 1943, due to the impact of World War II, Yashin's family moved to Voskresenk, and at the age of 14, Yashin joined his father in a factory as an apprentice. While working, Yashin continued his hobby in sports, with ice hockey and soccer being his favorites. After the end of the war in 1945, the 16-year-old Yashin embarked on a sporty path.
There are two paths in front of him: playing soccer or ice hockey. You must know that Yashin's level of ice hockey has reached a very high level, for which he was also awarded the title of Soviet athlete.
Eventually, the gracious invitation of the coach of the Soviet national football team, Semychastna, worked, and Yashin made one of the most important decisions of his life: to go to the football field and guard the goal. This decision culminated in a legendary door god.
In his 26-year career as goalkeeper, Yashin played 326 games and made 78 appearances for the Soviet Union, helping the Soviet Union win an Olympic gold medal in 1956 and eighth in the 1958 World Cup, where he was named the best goalkeeper. In 1960, the Soviet team won the European Championship, and in 1963 Yashin was elected European Footballer of the Year, the only goalkeeper to do so. Another impressive record for Yashin is that he has saved 98 penalties during his football career.
Pele: It's not easy to break Yashin's goal Yashin is 1.85m tall, and his judgment and quick reaction to the ball are particularly outstanding, which may have something to do with his early experience playing ice hockey. Some people gave him the nickname "Octopus" because of his large coverage of the goal, and because Yashin likes to wear black sportswear when he keeps goal, some people call him "Black Spider".
Among the stars who have played against Yashin, Pele has spoken highly of his performance. "If you want to break through Yashin's gate, you need to work twice as hard. In 1970, English Football World voted the best player in the world, and Yashin was ranked second behind Pele.
On May 27, 1971, at the age of 42, Yashin held a farewell match in Moscow, and the Soviet team defeated the World Stars United 2-0, and a generation of goalkeepers retired. In 1984, Yashin was forced to arthrop his right leg due to a blood clot, and on March 20, 1990, Yashin died of illness at the age of 61. Even today, when people talk about the best goalkeeper in the history of football, they can't forget to mention one name:
Black Spider "Lev Yashin."

Livakovich! If it weren't for this World Cup match, it is likely that there would still be a lot of fans who would be unfamiliar with the Croatian goalkeeper. The 27-year-old Croatian international is not a talented goalkeeper, but he helped the Plaid Army eliminate Japan and reach the last eight of the World Cup.
Yes, he is the goalkeeper with the most stable psychological quality in this World Cup.
In the history of the World Cup, penalty shootouts not only test the players who take the penalty kicks, but also the touchstone for goalkeepers to test whether their psychological quality on the spot is excellent. Livakovic was not teased by Croatian players like Japanese goalkeeper Shuichi Gonda, but judged the right direction almost every time, and successively blocked the penalty kicks taken by three players, Takumi Minamino, Kaoru Mikasa and Maya Yoshida, equaling the penalty kick in the World Cup.
became the third goalkeeper in history to save three penalties in a penalty shootout.
Livakovic became famous in the first fight, making his name remembered by fans all over the world. After a somewhat mediocre career, it was not until 2016 that he joined Croatian giants Dinamo Zagreb to receive major competitions in the Champions League and Europa League. However, in the last World Cup, he was only a substitute player for the Plaid Army, sharing the joy of the team's historic World Cup runner-up as a spectator.
And some Chinese fans may have known Livakovic earlier. At the start of 2017 in Nanning, Guangxi, the then 22-year-old Livakovic made his international A-level debut, making his debut for Croatia in the China Cup against South American giants Chile. Coincidentally, Croatia drew 1-1 with Chile in this match, and the game dragged on penalties.
It's a pity that Livakovic, who didn't have a "big heart" at that time, didn't save 1 penalty kick and finally lost the game.
Livakovic started the China Cup football tournament, and after several years, he finally succeeded in locking the position of the main goalkeeper of the Croatian team in the last two years. The mold is wider than Qatar.
With the experience of the World Cup, Livakovic is expected to take a step forward and usher in a new height in his career. What awaits him will be the next crucial battle to reach the last four of the World Cup. If there is a penalty shoot-out, I believe that the players standing at 12 yards will feel the pressure.
