Senne Lammens on being a goalscoring keeper after Anatoliy Trubin’s effort for Benfica
As the last match to finish, there was enough stoppage time for the hosts to be awarded a debatable free-kick and, when it arrived in the box, Trubin nodded past Thibaut Courtois, Lammens’s Belgium team-mate, but the celebrations were perhaps not as crazy as could be expected, with still some confusion concerning the overall picture.
“Before, I didn’t understand what we needed,” Trubin said afterwards. “I see everyone start to point at me and I go and after I see [I need to go forward]. We need one more goal.
“I don’t know what to say, it’s a crazy moment.
“I am not used to scoring so, for me, it was something completely new. I am 24 years old and, for me, it’s the first time.”
THAT IS UNBELIEVABLE 🔥
