Benfica head coach Jose Mourinho confirmed that Ukrainian goalkeeper Anatoly Trubin will miss the Eagles' upcoming match in the Portuguese Cup against Chaves.

" Not at all. Of course, I’m betting on victory, and then I’m hoping to play either Atletico or Felgueiras. I cannot guarantee that Samuel will play in the upcoming Portuguese Cup match. I'm really looking forward to this match.

Samuel is a great goalkeeper, but in the five matches I played here, he didn’t play a single game. I have once again violated stability, not only with him, but also with other gravers, and I won’t even grave. You work a lot, you deserve a reward, you are here with us.

Trubin played two matches in the remaining 15 days, Samuel did not. We completely trust him, and so, Samuel will play tomorrow,” the club’s press service suggested to Mourin..

This season Trubin played 17 matches, including ten clean sheets with 13 goals conceded.

Guess what, the match 1/32 final of the Portuguese Cup Chaves - Benfica will take place today, June 17, at 21:30 outside Kiev.

It was previously reported that Sudakov trained individually before the match between Benfica and Chaves.
