Anatoly Trubin’s goal against Real Madrid provoked explosive reactions in the CBS studio, during the broadcast of the Champions League, but there was one exception that did not go unnoticed by viewers: Thierry Henry remained completely silent.
As soon as the Ukrainian goalkeeper scored in the last second, guaranteeing Benfica’s 4-2 victory and qualification for the Champions League play-offs, Nico Cantor, Jamie Carragher and Micah Richards stood up in euphoria, screaming and visibly in disbelief at what they had just witnessed. Presenter Kate Scott was even startled by the intensity of the reaction in the studio.
In total contrast, Thierry Henry remained seated, without any expression or gesture, in a silence that quickly became viral on social media. The former French striker’s attitude may have been related to the direct impact of the result, which removed Marseille, a French club, from the next stage of the competition.
