Former Manchester United goalkeeper Raimond van der Gouw recalled the match against Dynamo in the Champions League in 1999.
“I remember playing with “MU” against Kyiv’s “Dynamo” in the Champions League. It was quite a while ago. But I clearly remember that the match took place in Kyiv — and it was a cold evening in October or November. We drew with the Kyivans — 0:0. And the goalkeeper for “Dynamo” from that match is now the head coach of the team — Oleksandr Shovkovskyi. I played in that match — and it wasn’t easy at all. The pitch was soft. But I made a few good saves. After the game, the boss patted me on the shoulder for a good game. I was very pleased with that,” said van der Gouw.
