It is very sad information: at the age of 55 died the best striker of all time of Georgia - Ramaz Shengelia. He was one of the best strikers of "Torpedo", Tbilisi "Dinamo" and No.1 forward of the Soviet Union's national team. “Golden Dinamo” was unimaginable without him and there would not be such triumphs as “Dinamo” reached.

In 1978 he became champion, the best player and the best forward of the Soviet Union. In 1979 he won the Soviet Cup, UEFA Cup Winners' Cup in 1981 and in 1980 won U-21 European champion.

In 1981 he again became the favorite player of the USSR. In 1982, he played even at “Mundial” and of course scored a goal.

A lot of people think that at the time when “Dinamo” was in its peak, he was the best striker in the USSR as well as in Europe. Person – Goal! He assisted Gutsaev in the final match of Cup Winners’ Cup against “Carl Zeiss”.

Ramaz Shengelia ... he was only 55 years old. One of the big players lacked Georgia.

"World Sport" expresses its condolences to his family.
