The match of the 19th round of La Liga between Valencia and Villarreal took place on 2 January. The game ended with the score 3:1 in favour of the "bats". Ukrainian forward of the hosts Roman Yaremchuk came on the pitch in the starting line-up and played 70 minutes. The Ukrainian opened the scoring. For him, this goal was his first in the Spanish league and his second in the Valencia shirt.
Valencia fans were also delighted with Roman's performance:
ea_molinero13: "Look at Yaremchuk's latest Instagram post. It's called a team. Ukrainian tankette."
Mar2vlc: "You can see that Roman is excited. Really like the Duro/Yaremchuk duo. The tandem looks very cool".
fdematch: "I remember Yaremchuk well during COVID, it was something. Fruitful, clever in his movements, selfless, had to be a team striker, mobile for his height.... Must have been hard to get over the Benfica debacle.
AdrianVCF_: "Football is a drug, he says, ha ha ha, he's the best, I hope he continues to play as well, I like him a lot, Don Roman Yaremchuk".
Abraham: "Yaremchuk is an iconic striker and I hope he continues to progress".
AlexCg88144469: "Where are the useless anti-Valencia supporters who are gobbling up that we have no personnel and Yaremchuk is very bad?"
Joropei19: "Yaremchuk needs more goals like the one he scored today. Mestalla will appreciate that."
alenvcf: "He is in good harmony with the team and from now on he will start scoring important goals in the league".
Recall, to "Valencia" Yaremchuk moved on loan from Belgian "Brugge" in early September. Since then, the striker has taken part in 15 matches of his new team in all tournaments (6 appearances in the starting line-up, 9 substitute appearances), and now he has two goals to his credit (one in the Spanish Cup, one in the Spanish league).
