After a great preseason, the beginning of 2007/08’s A-League season was challenging for both Rukavytsya as well as Perth Glory. But, following Ron Smith’s departure as Coach Ron Smith, Rukavytsya turned his game around. He started by making two scores against Newcastle Jets in David Mitchell’s debut game as coach, and two more scores in a game against Melbourne Victory at home on 2 December 2007. At the conclusion in the 2007/08 A-League campaign, the Rukavytsya had managed scoring six goals over the final eight games of the season.
