Frank Lampard liked the Ukrainian defender’s performance in the derby against Liverpool.
Vitaliy Mikolenko played a great match against Liverpool. This is what Everton head coach Frank Lampard said. According to the mentor, in the Merseyside derby, the Ukrainian faced one of the best players on the planet, Mohammed Salah.
The specialist believes that the performance of the defender is incredible.
“I have to give a lot of praise to both fullbacks, each in their own way. As for Mikolenko, we can’t imagine what he has to deal with off the pitch. He’s handling it incredibly well when you consider what’s going on at home.
When I got here, he was only here for a while. My question is, “Does he fit in this league?” I sat down and talked to him, I watched his game last year and looked at cuts of his game
This is to show the reasons why we signed it. And I saw how he added to the game in defense and in attack. In this game, he faced one of the best football players in the world. I think Mikolenko had an outstanding match against him,” Lampard said as quoted by the Daily Mail.
Recall that in the last round of the English Premier League, Liverpool and Everton played a draw 0:0.
