Benfica coach Roger Schmidt explained why Anatoly Trubin was left out of the reserves.
In the 29th round of the Portuguese Championship, Benfica hosted Moreirense. Goalkeeper of the national team of Ukraine Anatoly Trubin has a whole bunch of tests on the bench for the substitutes.
After the game, Eagles coach Roger Schmidt explained his decision to keep the Ukrainian in the reserves.
" The match with Moreirense is an hour for other players to show themselves, and this is a good signal for the team, for everyone.
“Reserves have shown that they can bring results, including good preparation physically, technically and perhaps a great mentality, which is even good for us,” Schmidt quotes Maisfutebol.
In the upcoming match, Benfica will play against Marseille in the match of the 1/4 finals of the European League.
