In the pre-season match against Roma, Everton’s defender Vitaliy Mykolenko was forced to leave the field as early as the 11th minute due to injury. The player came out in the starting lineup, but was unable to continue the game due to damage.

The head coach of the team David Mesos commented the situation with the football player, noting that the team has not yet received a full medical report. “We will wait for the doctors to say, we had no chance to see the report,” Myos said.

In addition to Mykolenko, the trainer’s attention was focused on the other two players: Patterson is currently a herniation examination, and Armstrong has received a slight stretching of the thigh during training.

The Roma match ended in Everton’s defeat with a score of 0: 1. Also, Artem Dovbik spent 80 minutes in the field, but he did not distinguish with effective actions.

The condition of Vitaliy Mykolenko is now a major issue for the club, and the fans are waiting for the official findings of the medical service in the near future.
