[Tooting Carmen]

Turanid-Armenoid-Slavic hybrid?

Rinat sounds like tatar name.
Armenoid + Turanid.

Thanks for the thread, Rinat was my favorite goalkeeper in 1980s!
Yes, Dasayev is Tatar, actually.

Yep, a great goalkeeper. And indeed, he is a Tatar.


Rinat Fayzrakhmanovich Dasayev (Russian: Ринат Файзрахманович Дасаев, Tatar: Rinat Faizrahman uly Dasaev; born June 13, 1957 in Astrakhan, Russian SFSR) is a Russian former football goalkeeper of Tatar ethnicity, who played in three World Cups with the Soviet national team. He is considered the second best Russian goalkeeper ever behind Lev Yashin, and one of the best in the world in the 1980s. He was awarded the title of the World’s Best Goalkeeper of the Year award in 1988 by the IFFHS. In 2004, he was named by Pelé as one of the top 125 greatest living footballers.
