Career & Clubs

Club career

Apanashchenko started her career at the capital team Kyivska Rus when she was 15 years old in 2001. In a 2010 interview Apanashchenko stated that women's football was completely ignored in Ukraine at that time. In the 2008–09 UEFA Women's Cup semi-final second leg at Umeå she scored two goals that sealed Zvezda's surprising qualification for the final. She also scored Zvezda's only goal in the two-legged final. In 2016 Apanashchenko appeared on Myrotvorets for "deliberate violation of the State border of Ukraine in order to penetrate into the Crimea occupied by Russian invaders, participation in propaganda activities of Russia (the aggressor country) against Ukraine, participation in attempts to legalize the occupation of the Autonomous Republic of Crimea by Russian invaders". In March 2022, she moved to Turkey and joined Ankara-based club Fomget FSK to play in the second half of the 2021-22 Women's Super League. She scored three goals in ten league matches of the 2021–22 season.

International career

Apanashchenko earned her first cap for the Ukraine national team on 12 May 2002, coming on as a substitute on the 88th-minute in a 1–1 2003 FIFA Women's World Cup qualification (UEFA) draw with Norway in Boryspil. She scored three goals in the qualifying stage for UEFA Women's Euro 2009, including winners against Denmark and Scotland, and contributed further to Ukraine's qualification for the tournament scoring three more goals in the play-off against Slovenia. In the final tournament she scored again against Denmark, but that time it was not enough to win the match. In 2013 she was appointed national team captain. By June 2019 Apanashchenko had amassed over 100 international appearances and more than 50 goals. In April 2021, she scored in Ukraine's UEFA Women's Euro 2022 qualifying play-offs tie against Northern Ireland – her 61st goal in her 122nd appearance – but Ukraine were beaten 4–1 on aggregate.
