Bruno Lage was fired from Benfica, after a 3-2 defeat against Qarabag. José Mourinho returned to Luz, 25 years later, and is the new coach of the reds. Anatoliy Trubin, the usual starter, reacted to the changes in the technical command of the Luz club.
"Restart, clear the mind", wrote the international goalkeeper for Ukraine on his social networks, along with a photograph of the red squad in the first training session led by the Special One, during a lecture by the Portuguese coach.
Anatoliy Trubin has been the main choice for Benfica's goal, since he was hired from Shakhtar Donetsk. Despite Bruno Lage sometimes rotating the goal and placing Samuel Soares as a starter, the 'number 1' is the main goalkeeper of the reds.
This season, with the Benfica shirt, Anatoliy Trubin - valued at 28 million euros - has played eight matches: five in the Champions League, two in the Liga Portugal Betclic and another in the Supertaça Cândido de Oliveira. In the 720 minutes he was used, the goalkeeper conceded four goals.
The Benfica will return to the field next Saturday, September 20, against AVS. The match against the team led by Fábio Espinho, valid for the sixth round of the Liga Portugal Betclic, will be played in Vila das Aves and is scheduled to kick off at 6:00 pm.
