Blogger Sport.ua Sergiy Tishchenko tells how the Ukrainians proved themselves in the leading European championships.
Over the weekend there was a round in the leading European championships. Summing up for our compatriots from the top leagues.
Tsygankov did not save Girona from a missed goal
Girona lost at home to Villarreal – 1:2.
Guests quickly took the lead after a swift counterattack. The Catalans responded with a goal scored by David Lopez after a set piece. Already in stoppage time, Gerard Moreno brought victory to the “yellow submarine”.
Victor Tsygankov came out in the starting lineup and played the entire match. The player of the national team of Ukraine came out in the second match in a row not on the right flank, but in the middle of the field, closer to the attacker.
Tsygankov was not particularly noticeable throughout the match. Far from always fulfilling the usual standards. In the middle of the second half, Victor beat Christian Stuani in the penalty area, after which he “pierced” Pepe Reina. The problem is that the Uruguayan striker was in a clear offside position. The help of the VAR was not required here.

Already in injury time, Tsygankov completed the standard for the goal of Villarreal. The ball took Reine without any problems and immediately began a counterattack. Nicholas Jackson extended the ball to the corner of the Girona penalty area and crossed over to Moreno, who hit the empty net with one touch. After completing the standard, Tsygankov found himself in the role of a central defender (the central defenders went ahead) and had to insure this particular position. Moreno scored from behind just the Ukrainian. Viktor simply lacked the experience and skills to play in this situation. He lost position, leaving the Villarreal striker alone.
After the defeat, Girona dropped to eighth place. Lagging behind the Conference League zone – 2 points.
Zabarny’s second match in a row Getty Images/Global Images Ukraine. Ilya Zabarny vs. Christian Eriksen
Bournemouth lost at home to Manchester United – 0:1.
Brazil’s Casemiro scored the only goal of the match early in the game.
Ilya Zabarny came out in the starting lineup and played the entire match. Formally, Casemiro scored from the zone of the Ukrainian defender. But Zabarny was not supposed to play with the Brazilian. Here, Ilya’s partner in the center of defense, Marcos Senesi, is more of a mistake. The Argentine was unable to interrupt the transfer of Christian Eriksen to Casemiro. The Brazilian defender, taking advantage of Senesi’s touch, beautifully shot the Bournemouth gate through himself.
In the middle of the second half, Zabarny was unable to block Waut Wegorst’s shot from outside the box. It was lucky that the ball hit the Bournemouth goalkeeper.
In general, Ilya had a fairly good match against a strong opponent.
After the defeat, Bournemouth are in 15th place and have guaranteed themselves the preservation of residence in the Premier League for next season.
Assist Malinowski
Marseille lost away to Lille – 1:2.
Guests won after the first half. But the team of Paulo Fonseca was able to win a strong-willed victory.
Ruslan Malinovsky came out in the starting lineup and played the entire match. In the first half, the Ukrainian chalked up an assist. Ruslan took the ball away from the opponent in the middle of the field, outplayed with a partner and gave a split pass to Jonathan Kloss, who realized the exit to the opponents’ goal.
In the second half, he earned two yellow cards for his opponents. Participated in the attack, when Cengiz Under could score, but the Turkish striker did not realize his moment. In general, the Ukrainian midfielder was active and can take the match in Lille to his credit.
Despite the defeat, Marseille guaranteed themselves a place in the Champions League next season. Igor Tudor’s team will not fall below third place this season. Lagging behind the second “Lance” – 5 points.
Mudrik came on as a substitute
Chelsea lost 0-1 to Premier League champions Manchester City.
The hosts scored the only goal in the match at the beginning of the match by the efforts of Julian Alvarez.

Mikhail Mudrik started the match on the bench. The Ukrainian winger entered the game in the middle of the second half. Tried to improve the game of his team. Had half moments. At first, Mudrik was not allowed to shoot on goal by John Stones, who blocked the Ukrainian’s shot from outside the penalty area. Then, in a high-speed attack, Mikhail had free space, but he played too selfishly and delivered an inaccurate shot from an uncomfortable position instead of a pass to his partners.
After the defeat, Chelsea are in 12th place.
Zinchenko out for the rest of the season
Vitaliy Mykolenko was not included in the Everton squad due to an injury for the game against Wolverhampton (1:1).
Oleksandr Zinchenko missed the match against Nottingham Forest (0:1) due to injury.
Eduard Sobol did not play for Strasbourg in the match against Troyes (1:1) due to a nose injury.
