Dark Horses and Underachievers - The USSR : 107
Dark Horses and Underachievers - The USSR - Season 1, Episode 7
After a fourth-place finish in 1966, the Soviet Union was primed for a period of sustained footballing success - but it never came.
In this episode, we take a look at the best performance from a Soviet side in 1966, their period of severe underachievement through the 1970s, and their eventual rise again under the tutelage of Valeriy Lobanovskyi in the late 1980s. This is the Soviet Union at the World Cup.
