  • Mykhailo Mudryk sent out a subtle dig to his trolls after a dominant show against North Macedonia
  • The Chelsea winger set up two goals as Ukraine got an important win in the Euro 2024 qualifiers
  • Mudryk has had a contrasting form with his club after sealing a huge money move in January

Mykhailo Mudryk revelled in his latest beautiful display for Ukraine by uploading a cryptic post on Instagram.

Mudryk starred in Ukraine's 3-2 win over North Macedonia in the race to qualify for the Euro Championships next year. Ukraine came from two goals down, with Mudryk setting up the second and third goals in the game staged at the National Arena in Skopje.

The first assist came from a mazy run from the Chelsea winger to set up Yukhym Konoplya for the second goal before swinging in a delightful cross for Viktor Tsygankov to head in for the winning goal.

Mudryk's performance follows after he forced an Antonio Rudiger own goal during an international friendly against Germany on Monday.

After the North Macedonia match, the 22-year-old then took to his Instagram stories, where he uploaded a GIF of a man smiling sarcastically.

How fans reacted

Fans online loved the reaction.

@Shayee said:

"This guy will be a troll when he becomes good."

@konami said:

"If this guy actually hits his form.. He'll be a very marketable player for Chelsea"

@Dr.Cube said:

"Bro is gonna troll so much in the future. I can see it already."

Chelsea fans and incoming Head Coach Mauricio Pochettino will be hoping that the former Shakhtar Donetsk man could hit the same heights next season. He is yet to impress in a Chelsea shirt after snubbing Arsenal to join their London rivals in January.

Mudryk tells cameraman to get better angle

Sports Brief has previously reported that Chelsea ace, Mykhailo Mudryk certainly knows his angles as far as the camera is concerned, and this was evident on Sunday, May 28.

The winger briefly put the disappointing campaign with the Blues aside as he appeared to urge a cameraman to film him from a more flattering angle at full-time.

Since making a sensational £88 million move from Shakhtar Donetsk in January, Mudryk has struggled as a Blue, and was an unused substitute against Newcastle in a game that was a formality for both teams.
