Emotions were running high both on the pitch and in the stands at the end of the match. In the aftermath of the draw between Benfica and Famalicão, Anatoliy Trubin, the Eagles’ goalkeeper, got into a heated exchange with Benfica supporters, leaving the No. 1 with ringing ears as he made his way over to his teammates.

Based on footage circulating online, the Ukrainian goalkeeper did not take kindly to the behavior of the Benfica fans and, in the closing stages of the match, put his finger to his lips to tell them to be quiet. The result? Trubin ended up being insulted and targeted by the Benfica supporters present at the stadium.

However, the situation was far from over. After being insulted, Trubin refused to join the Benfica squad by the stands to thank the supporters for their backing. The Ukrainian resisted the insistence of Simão Sabrosa, Benfica’s technical director.

After refusing to thank the supporters for their support, the Ukrainian international headed straight to the dressing room, a decision that sparked a huge wave of anger among the Benfica fans in the stands, who made their displeasure heard.

It should be remembered that Benfica dropped two points in Famalicão after conceding a 2-2 draw in a match marked by controversial refereeing. Andreas Schjelderup and Richard Ríos had put the Eagles ahead, but the second half had other plans for José Mourinho’s side.
