The Ukrainian defender spent the entire 90 minutes on the pitch
Everton gave in big time Brighton in the home match of the 1st round English Premier League 2024/25 — 0:3.
Ukrainian defender Vitaliy Mykolenko played the entire match, but could not help the Toffees avoid defeat. The hosts conceded two unanswered goals from Kaoru Mitoma and Danny Welbeck. Sean Dyche’s team spent more than half of the second half with one man down after Ashley Young was sent off.
In the end, the Seagulls brought the game to a rout: substitute Simon Adingra scored a goal.
In this match, Brighton midfielder James Milner broke Ryan Giggs’ record for the most seasons spent in this competition. The Leeds native now has 23.
Both teams will play their second round matches on August 24. Brighton will host Manchester United, while Everton will travel to visit Tottenham.
