Benfica fans made themselves heard, Trubin's reaction sparks talk | OneFootball

Tempers both on the pitch and in the stands were running high at the end of the match. In the aftermath of the draw between Benfica and Famalicão, Anatoliy Trubin, the Reds' goalkeeper, got into a heated exchange with Benfica fans, leaving the number 1 with his ears burning as he headed over to his teammates.

Based on the footage circulating online, the Ukrainian goalkeeper was unhappy with the behavior of the Benfica supporters in the closing stages of the match and, with his finger in front of his lips, told them to be quiet. The result? Trubin ended up being insulted and targeted by the Benfica fans present at the stadium.

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

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

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