Today, Gennadiy Lytovchenko, who defended the colours of Dynamo Kyiv in 1988-1990, celebrates his 60th birthday.
Dear Gennadiy Volodymyrovych!
On the day of your 60th birthday, I would like to express my sincere words and wishes to the Athlete with a capital A, a true fighter and leader, a man of strong character and a broad soul.
Your anniversary is truly golden, because Gennadiy Lytovchenko's long football biography is an unforgettable glow of bright successes achieved in an honest selfless struggle on green fields around the world.
The USSR champion with Dnipro and Dynamo, the country's best footballer in 1984, European vice-champion in 1988, participant in two world finals - your willingness to sacrifice for the sake of team victories has earned you great respect from the fans.
Football was never a job for you. On the field, you were a creator, an improviser, turning the game into an art. And the richest experience and lessons learned from the best mentors later helped you to turn into a demanding coach who strives for new heights and always achieves results.
I wish you happiness and health, Gennadiy Volodymyrovych! Peace and prosperity in your family. Success in your favourite business and fulfilment of all your cherished wishes.
Happy anniversary!
Grigory Surkis
