Ukrainian goalkeeper of Benfica Lisbon Anatoliy Trubin, who moved to this club from Shakhtar Donetsk in the first half of August, yesterday made his international debut for his current team.
The 22-year-old goalkeeper played for Benfica in the home match of the 1st round of the Champions League group stage with Austrian Salzburg, but it is unlikely that he will be able to record this game as an asset. Already in the 2nd minute of the game Trubin "brought" a penalty in his own goal, which turned out to be a yellow card for him. However, Konate's shot from the 11-metre mark was inaccurate.
However, soon another penalty was awarded to Benfica, and this time the score was opened. Well, at the beginning of the second half, the Ukrainian goalkeeper missed from the game.
As a result, Trubin expectedly received low marks for this match. WhoScored gave him 5.9 points, and only the suspended António Silva (5.1) had less in Benfica. SofaScore evaluated Trubin's game a little better. In this case, the Ukrainian received 6.6 points. The scores are lower in Benfica - for the three players who came on as substitutes (6.3, 6.4, 6.5), for Rafa Silva (6.3) and for the mentioned António Silva (3.0)
