Yarmolyuk turns into Brentford’s main player, increasingly receiving a place in the starting composition. In the last five rounds, Yegor went to the field four times from the first minutes, and yesterday played a full match against Nottingham Forest – the main sensation of the APL. Brentford won and did not let his opponent into the Champions League zone, and Yarmolyuk was in the spotlight.

The Ukrainian started in the center paired with Nephir, but was actively shifting to the left flank. And during the construction of the attacks (filling the area when Lewis-Postter rose to another’s half), and during his position defense (insured the left defender in duels with Elang and Gibbs). This is exactly how Yegor got into the first highlight – read the design of the fast dribmer Elanga and took the ball at the entrance to the penalty area.

Brentford was noticeably better in the fight and exceeded Nottingham by intensity. Yarmolyuk made his contribution, winning 6 out of 9 martial arts and making 6 rebounds. At the end of the first half, he tried to bite the ball in Yetsa and got strongly when he received from Captain Forest first on his face and then by inertia. Yegor said a few sharp words, which almost did not provoke a fight. The opponent responded very calmly, hugging our midfielder, so everything ended peacefully.

The third bright episode happened in 88 minutes. Yarmolyuk on the background of tired partners and rivals issued a raid from his own half to another’s penalty area. He shifted along the line to the center, slipped two and rolled under a convenient blow to Mbmo – the Cameroon did not turn into the far “nine”. Very close to the first effective action in the APL. But it is not necessary to surprise the absence of heads and assistants – Yegor essentially plays a supporter.

A few months ago, Yarmolyuk was recognized when the APL published statistics on a overcome distance. The 90 minutes of the Ukrainian runs 12.9 kilometers – the best indicator in the whole championship. Bretford coach constantly praises him. After the match with Newcastle in December, Thomas Frank expressed his personal admiration with Egore and made applause in the locker room.

“He is a very dynamic football player. It works well under pressing, in duels, brought technically. He has fantastic thinking. This season he took a big step forward. I like the most in Jehor mentality and concentration in training”– more detailed coach told about the strengths of Yarmolyuk in an interview with Setanta last week.

Brentford fans on social networks gave compliments specifically for yesterday’s match:

Really underratified Yarmoliuk Performance. Droped Into Lb WHEN We Were Defending to Protect Klp and Was Still Running Mad in The 91st Minute. THINK THAT’S HIS POSITION SOLIDIFIED FOR Good Now

“Really undervalued Yarmolyuk’s speech. He lowered to the left flank in defense to protect Lewis-Poter, and in 91 minutes he was still extinguished at a frantic pace. I think he has now fixed a place in the composition”

Special Mentation for Yarmoliuk. He’s Been Excellent Since Coming Back Into The Sides Full of Energy Getting Up and Down The Pitch and Using the Ball Well. Really Looks The Part .. @beesotted @brentfordfc

“Separate mention of Yarmolyuk. He is chic after returning to the composition of energy, constantly moving on the field, well disposes of the ball. The real part of the team”

Kayode and Yarmoliuk Tonight 👏riage 👏riage.
