Anatoliy Trubin admits Benfica were not at their best in Arouca win | OneFootball

Anatoliy Trubin admitted Benfica were not at their best in a last-minute win at Arouca, highlighting the side’s character while keeping up the chase for first place.

The player said in a post that the display was far from their brightest, but resolve counted on a night at Estádio Municipal de Arouca.

He also pointed to the value of three important points and stressed togetherness.

The Ukrainian international is on a run of four consecutive games conceding, against Real Madrid at the Bernabéu, Gil Vicente, Porto and Arouca.

The 24-year-old has come under heavy pressure in recent weeks after several contentious moments that affected results, which could compromise his starting place next season.

This season for Benfica, Trubin, valued at €28 million, has played 42 matches.

They break down as 24 in the Liga Portuguesa, 14 in the Liga dos Campeões, two in the Taça de Portugal, one in the Taça da Liga and one in the Supertaça, for 3,735 minutes and 35 goals conceded.
