How much they paid the USSR players for a draw with the French. They got 25 times more!

Unjust! In the days of the USSR, Soviet teams were fairies in European competitions, the players won the Golden Balls, and the national team was a formidable force. Nevertheless, the players earned real pennies compared to modern colleagues. This will not allow, for example, the famous defender Alexander Lysenko will not be to lie. He began to play in the mid-1970s for the Kharkov Metalist, and in 1977 he moved to the Dnieper, where he became a real legend. In a club from Dnepropetrovsk, Alexander spent 10 years, helped to win the championship of the USSR and take bronze twice.Krasnozhon Anatoly/Photokhronika Tassiz, such achievements of Lysenko may have the opinion that at one time he bathed in money.

For comparison – the French were given 5,000 for this match for this match [около 500 рублей]”, – said Lysenko.
