Football: Georgia's star Soviet striker Shengelia dies
Former Georgian football star Ramaz Shengelia, famed for the goals he scored for the Soviet Union and Dinamo Tbilisi, died on Thursday aged 55, the country's football federation said.
Striker Shengelia enjoyed his peak at Dinamo Tbilisi, where he won the Soviet Supreme League in 1978 and the European Cup Winners' Cup in 1981 -- the greatest footballing success ever achieved by a Georgian club.
The forward also won 26 caps and scored 10 goals for the Soviet Union's national team during the period when Georgia was under Moscow's rule, and he was part of their squad at the 1982 World Cup.
Shengelia was named the Soviet Union's player of the year in 1978 and 1981, and ended his career at IFK Holmsund in Sweden in 1990.
The Georgian Fooball Federation expressed sorrow over the death of an "outstanding member of Georgia's football family".
"Shengelia's inimitable style changed traditional perceptions of the attacking process," the federation said in a statement.
Russian newspaper Kommersant also described him as "one of the best Soviet forwards".
He died of a heart attack, Kommersant reported his family as saying.
