The Ukrainian newcomer of the French "Marseille" - the midfielder of the Ukrainian national team Ruslan Malinovsky - yesterday played another, already the fifth match for his new club.
This time, the 29-year-old football player got into the starting lineup of the Provencals for yesterday's match of the French Championship with Nantes and spent 57 minutes on the field, after which he was replaced by Matteo Guendouzi.
French Championship. 21st round
"Nantes" - "Marseille" - 0:2 (0:0)
Goals: Vitor (57, own goal), Ounahy (90+3)

Malinovsky again failed to distinguish himself with effective actions, while on the 17th he received a yellow card. Note that this is the second warning for the Ukrainian in Marseille since he moved to the French club.
We also note that Malinovsky's game in this match was rated rather low. From WhoScored, he received only 6.5 points, and this is the second worst result in the team - only Cengiz Under (6.4) has a lower score. For 57 minutes spent on the field, the Ukrainian made 3 shots on goal, of which only one was accurate, and his marriage in passes was 19% (13 accurate passes out of 16).
