Anatolij Trubin scored the 4-2 goal in stoppage time against Real Madrid, sneaking Benfica into the playoffs with the last kick of the league phase

Goalkeeper Anatoliy Trubin scored a remarkable stoppage-time goal to claim a 4-2 win for Benfica against Real Madrid — sending Jose Mourinho’s side through to the play-offs as they condemned his former side to that additional knockout stage.
