A curious incident happened to the Ukrainian midfielder of Marseille Ruslan Malinovsky. The 29-year-old football player, after an away match with Toulouse (3:2), missed his plane and returned to Marseille separately from his team.
According to La Provence, Malinovsky went through doping control for too long after the said match and, as a result, Marseille did not wait for the Ukrainian and flew home without him.
Recall that in the match with Toulouse, Malinovsky spent the second half on the field, and did not score with effective actions. In total, after moving to Marseille, the Ukrainian took part in nine matches of the Provencals this winter, and he scored two goals.
