Anything happens in Lisbon. Benfica scores at the last gasp with a header from Trubin. Marseille out on goal difference
Once again Mourinho, at the last minute, in a crazy way, in the most unexpected way. In fact, his Benfica needed to beat Arbeloa’s Real Madrid (who was Mou’s player for three years from 2010 to 2013 at the Bernabeu) and they succeeded thanks to a crazy finish: 4-2 in the 97th minute with… a goal from the goalkeeper.

Meanwhile, the scenario. At the last minute Benfica would be out, eliminated on goal difference to the detriment of De Zerbi’s Marseille. Then, in the 97th minute, here’s the episode that turns the world upside down: a cross from a free kick from the right and Trubin, who has rushed into the area in desperation, who heads it and beats Courtois. Benfica in the playoffs and RDZ eliminated. Curiosity: the Portuguese will find one between Real – ironically – and Inter. In any case, it would be a former match for Mou, but in a certain sense also for Trubin. In fact, there was a time when he was the favorite for the post-Onana job, then he ended up at Benfica. Now he and the Nerazzurri could meet again.
trubin and destiny

Trubin, what tricks fate plays. The first to trust the goalkeeper was Roberto De Zerbi himself, when he sat on the Shakhtar bench. Today the Italian coach is thrown out of the Champions League in the most absurd way, precisely by a gap from Trubin at the end. The Ukrainian becomes the fifth goalkeeper in history to score in the competition.
