On the debut in Serie A

“The first is very important to me. Step by Step. We will move towards our dream.

Each time is a new and exciting emotion for me. I’m very happy.

Did you replace Malinovsky? He probably wanted Ruslan to finish playing because he played a great game. I just wanted out, no matter who it is.

The first time in Atalanta it was difficult, the language barrier, and now I begin to understand everything that the coach and the players demand. Everything is fine now, ”Kovalenko said.

In March, the Ukrainian team will play three qualifying matches for the 2022 World Cup: against France (March 24), Finland (28th) and Kazakhstan (31st).
