Officially, the 2023/2024 season for Ukraine's national team goalkeeper Anatolii Trubin began at Donetsk's 'Shakhtar'.

However, he did not play a single match for the Ukrainian team, so we can fully evaluate his experiences only from Lisbon onwards.

And here it can be said with full certainty that the 22-year-old Ukrainian has persevered in a difficult situation to the fullest extent. The coach did not immediately trust Trubin with the goalkeeper position. Roger Schmidt gave him some time to adapt to the new team, league, and country before making his move on Anatolii. Thus, we can consider September 16, 2023 as the start of Trubin's career in 'Eagles' colors. Since then, he has missed only one match for Benfica, playing from the first whistle to the final referee's signal in 20 matches. In his record are eight clean sheets, while conceding 17 goals and receiving two yellow cards. Of the four tournaments in which the Ukrainian participated, he was unable to keep a single goalless game in the Champions League.

An interesting detail. In 13 home matches where Anatolii played, Benfica never conceded a goal, only drawing three times.

It is worth noting that for Trubin and his team, the second half of the club's 2023/2024 season has already begun. On January 6, Benfica played an away match in Portugal's Primeira Liga against 'Arouca', winning with a score of 3:0, while the Ukrainian played the full game.
