Ukrainian goalkeeper of Portuguese Benfica Anatoliy Trubin was not included in the squad for yesterday's match of the 34th round of the Portuguese championship with Rio Ave (1:1).
Anatoly TrubinSamuel Soares took his place in the Lisbon goal.
Note that this season Trubin is almost permanent goalkeeper Benfica. From October last year to mid-April this year, the Ukrainian played in all matches of his team without exception. But on 14 April he was in reserve for the match of the Portuguese championship with "Moreirense" (3:0). After that Trubin again played permanently in the goal of "Benfica" - until yesterday.
In total, in the current season, the Ukrainian goalkeeper played for Benfica 48 matches in all tournaments, in which he missed a total of 47 goals.
We would like to add that the match "Rio Ave" - "Benfica" had no tournament significance for its participants. The hosts have long lost their chances of getting into the European Cup zone, but at the same time they have secured themselves from relegation to the lower division, and Trubin's team has secured itself in second place ahead of schedule - neither to rise above, nor to fall below the chances of Benfica.
