The match was awarded five extra minutes of stoppage time and was already in the eighth minute when pandemonium ensued.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.foxnews.com\/sports\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><strong>CLICK HERE FOR MORE SPORTS COVERAGE ON FOXNEWS.COM<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n<p>Benfica was awarded a foul near Real Madrid\u2019s goal and essentially received another chance to score. The free kick was placed perfectly in the box when Benfica goalkeeper Anatoliy Trubin, who was down in the area for extra support, nailed a header into the back of the net.<\/p>\n<p>Trubin celebrated as he was mobbed by his teammates. Benfica, a club led by Jose Mourinho, pushed into the knockout phase in 24th place of the tournament.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;I didn&#8217;t know what we needed. Then I saw everyone telling me to go up. I also saw our coach, so I went up, went into the box, and I don\u2019t know&#8230; I don\u2019t know what to say,&#8221; Trubin said. &#8220;Crazy moment. I don\u2019t know what to say. I\u2019m not used to scoring. I\u2019m 24 years old and it\u2019s the first time. Unbelievable.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>The goal also meant Real Madrid, a club <a href=\"https:\/\/www.foxnews.com\/sports\/real-madrids-new-manager-alvaro-arbeloa-claims-hell-spectacularly-fail-by-copying-jose-mourinho-after-stepping-in-to-replace-xabi-alonso\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">that Mourinho formerly managed<\/a>, dropped out of the top eight that automatically qualified for the round of 16.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.foxnews.com\/sports\/premier-league-soccer-star-unveils-faithful-message-scoring-first-goal-nearly-year-acl-injury\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><strong>PREMIER LEAGUE SOCCER STAR UNVEILS FAITHFUL MESSAGE AFTER SCORING FIRST GOAL IN NEARLY A YEAR AFTER ACL INJURY<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n<p>&#8220;I had no idea if 3-2 was enough, I had no indication. When the free kick came, I sent Trubin up front,&#8221; Mourinho said. &#8220;This victory is historic and important, even more so from a prestige point of view.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Trubin became the fifth goalkeeper to have scored in the Champions League proper, according to UEFA. He was the first since Ivan Provedel scored for Lazio in a 1-1 draw with Atletico Madrid in 2023.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;We knew that he could do it,&#8221; Mourinho said. &#8220;We were losing in Porto a couple of weeks ago, and in the last minute, he went up, and he almost scored. So we know that the big guy is capable of this. The quality of the service, of course, is the most important thing. You have to put the ball there, but it\u2019s an amazing goal for the guy.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Benfica isn\u2019t exactly a household name to the fair-weather soccer fan.<\/p>\n<p>The Portuguese club competes in Primeira Liga \u2013 the first tier in Portugal pro soccer. It is currently third in its table and hasn\u2019t won its league since the 2022-23 season. The club made it as far as the Round of 16 in the 2024-25 season.<\/p>\n<p><i>The Associated Press contributed to this report.<\/i><\/p>\n<p><i><strong>Follow Fox News Digital\u2019s<\/strong><\/i><a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/FoxNewsSports_\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><i><strong>\u00a0<u>sports coverage on X<\/u><\/strong><\/i><\/a><i><strong> and subscribe to<\/strong><\/i><a href=\"https:\/\/www.foxnews.com\/newsletters\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><i><strong><u> the Fox News Sports Huddle newsletter<\/u><\/strong><\/i><\/a><i><strong>.<\/strong><\/i><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.foxnews.com\/sports\/pandemonium-portuguese-clubs-goalie-nets-dramatic-score-enter-champions-league-knockout-round\">Source &#8211; https:\/\/www.foxnews.com\/sports\/pandemonium-portuguese-clubs-goalie-nets-dramatic-score-enter-champions-league-knockout-round <\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Benfica provided an all-time moment in the UEFA Champions League on Wednesday.
