Chavez reached the final 4 of the Nations League, Gagnidze - U21 UEFA Euro | News of  FC Dynamo Moscow

In the November international break, 12 Dynamo players went to their national teams at once, and seven of them flew to the matches in America.

The main Russian national team hosted the teams of Brunei (11:0) and Syria (4:0). Konstantin Tyukavin (played 81 minutes) and Daniil Fomin (74 minutes), who made an assist, played in the second meeting. Also, one assist was on the account of Stanislav Bessmertniy, who took part in all 3 matches in the triumphant Brazilian tour of the Russian U21 team: Fluminense U21 (2:1), Botafogo U23 (4:1) and San Cristovan (4:0).

The Russian U18 national team got two victories over peers from Paraguay – 1:0 and 6:2. Viktor Okishor made assists in both meetings, and Dmitry Alexandrov played the first match entirely with the captain's armband, and played one half in the second.

Two rounds were held in the South American qualifying tournament for the 2026 World Cup. Of the Dynamo players, only Fabian Balbuena got playing time, who played the full away match of Paraguay with Bolivia (2:2). Nicolas Marichal and Jorge Carrascal held both meetings of their teams in reserve. All three teams have a good chance of reaching the final tournament: Uruguay is second, Colombia is fourth, and Paraguay is sixth – the last, giving the right to direct entry to the World Cup.

Luis Chavez helped the Mexican national team make it to the final four of the CONCACAF Nations League. In the quarterfinals, the Mexicans lost on the road to Honduras (0:2), but in the return leg they took a convincing revenge (4:0). Now, in March 2025, Mexico will play in the semifinals of the tournament with Canada.

Luka Gagnidze also played an important role in the success of his team. The U21 national team of Georgia held play-off matches with the Croats for the right to enter the European Championship. At home, the Georgians won 1-0 (Gagnidze played the match completely), and in a dramatic away match they lost in regular time 2:3 (Luka scored a beautiful goal in the first half and was replaced in the 70th minute). As a result, everything was decided by a penalty shootout, in which the Georgians turned out to be stronger (7:6), and now they will play at the U21 Euro for the second time in history in June 2025.

The national team of Cameroon, which had previously guaranteed itself a place at the African Cup of Nations, completed the qualifying tournament with games with Namibia (0:0) and Zimbabwe (2:1). Nicolas Ngamaleu could not finish the first meeting due to injury, which, fortunately, turned out to be not serious, and he even came on as a substitute for a few minutes in the second game.

The captain of the Israeli national team, Eli Dasa, remained in reserve for the Nations League match with France (0:0) and played 72 minutes in the victorious meeting with Belgium (1:0). Despite these results, the Israelis finished last in Group A2 and dropped into the League B.
