Genoa's Ukrainian midfielder Ruslan Malinowsky has scored his third goal for the Italian club. The 30-year-old native of Zhytomyr scored in the match of the 24th round of Serie A against his former team Atalanta, for which he played 143 matches.

Our compatriot came into the starting lineup and equalized in the 51st minute. Ruslan played into the "wall" with Milan Badel and left the goalkeeper no chance.

After the goal, Ruslan did not rejoice, but silently ran to the center circle, raising his hands as if apologizing to the Atalanta fans.

It should be noted that this goal by the Ukrainian did not save Genoa from defeat. In the 55th minute, Ten Kopmeyers scored the winning goal. In the 10th added minute, David Zappacosta scored, and in the 13th minute, Toure El Bilal set the final result (1-4). The club from Genoa dropped to 12th place in the standings (29 points).

In December last year, a scandal broke out in the Italian championship after Malinowsky's dangerous tackle in the match against Juventus.

Turin fans on social media fiercely attacked the Ukrainian, accusing him of attempted murder and demanding a harsher punishment.

It will be recalled that in the 14th round of Serie A, Malinowsky scored a fantastic goal in a home match against Empoli.
