Levan Kobiashvili hold the last match in German Bundesliga and in his whole career. This was in the match of “Hertha” – “Dortmund” and before the start of this match the Berlin fans met 36-year-old players with a great ovation. Michael Preetz, general director of “Hertha”, gave him “Herta’s” shirt No.3 and bouquet.
Kobiashvili was in lineup against “Dortmund” and was substituted at the 67th minute, when “Hertha” was losing 0:2. Finally, the match ended 0:4.
351 matches and 32 goals in Bundesliga and in the whole professional career 772 matches and 82 goals. Not to say anything about other things, only statistic indicates his high level.
Kobiashvili has always been a deserving football player and a person for the youth players. He is the only one, who has hold 100 matches for national team and perhaps, he is an author of the most important and joyful goal in the team’s history: recall 1:0 over Croatia at the last minute…
Kobiashvili will arrive in Georgia in the near future and will play a different role in the development of the Georgian football.
