Another uncompromising defender who has been a mainstay of the Dynamo side since his early 20s. Now 26, Nesmachniy rarely misses a game for both club and country and has a wealth of experience that belies his relatively tender years. The former under-21 international made the step up to the full national side in 2000 and was an ever-present in Ukraine's unsuccessful qualifying campaigns for the last World Cup and European Championships. Committed central defender who has been known to pop up with important goals at unexpected times.
