The Ukrainian defender helped his club not give up the match against a lower-class opponent.
As part of the 1/16 FA Cup, Bournemouth met Swansea at home. Cherries coach Andoni Iraola used a moderate rotation in this match, but even this could not save the visitors from a humiliating defeat.
At the end of the first half, the scoreboard showed the numbers 5:0 in favor of the representative of the Premier League. In the second half, Bournemouth slowed down and just played the match to their logical victory.
Let’s note that the hosts’ Ukrainian defender Ilya Zabarny spent the entire match on the field, Swans’ Ukrainian forward Nikolai Kukharevich spent the entire match on the substitutes’ bench.
