The 2011 Lev Yashin Cup was an international invitational football tournament contested among the under-21 youth squads of Everton F.C., FC Dynamo Moscow, OFK Beograd, and SC Freiburg which took place on July 15 and July 16, 2011 in Moscow, Russia.[1] All matches were played at the Arena Khimki.

The tournament was formed and named in honor of former Soviet/Russian national football team goalkeeper, Lev Yashin by Dynamo Moscow, the club with which he spent his entire career. Naming rights for the tournament were bought by VTB Bank. “Russia is preparing for the World Cup 2018. That’s why we decided to make an emphasis on young players who I hope will participate in this great event”, said Vasily Titov, chairman of Dynamo Moscow, while explaining the change in the tournament format since its inception in 2008.[2]
