After the goal was scored, Yarmolenko began to cry, and after the final whistle, he shared his emotions with reporters:.
" It is very difficult for me at this moment to think about football, because every day in my country the Russian army kills Ukrainians. It was so emotional. I do not know what to say"
West Ham ended up winning 2-1. For Yarmolenko, this is the first goal scored since July 26, 2020 in the Premier League - then he also hit the gates of Aston Villa in the last round of the 2019/20 season.
