West Ham United winger Andriy Yarmolenko has relished his return to the Ukraine set-up.
Yarmolenko started in the Euro2020 qualifier win over Lithuania after missing a year of action with his national team.
Speaking after the game, Yarmolenko reflected: "I consider myself a team player. I didn't score, but the team won, so all is well.
"I tried, I worked hard. So far, I am just getting into shape, and I understand that I am not yet in optimal condition because I have missed a lot of time due to a serious injury."
Ukraine will face Nigeria on Tuesday, with Yarmalenko adding: "How could we play half-hearted when so many fans come to support us in away matches? Before the match, when we were entering the stadium, we saw how many of our fans were on the streets.
"We were even more surprised when we went to warm up and saw how many were in the stands! Thanks again to them.
"I am sure that we will play with our full commitment against Nigeria as we will be supported by those fans it's all for them. I've missed playing for Ukraine and the Ukrainian fans."
