Endrick makes history with winning goal as Brazil edge England in friendly
In a historic moment at Wembley Stadium, Brazil’s rising star Endrick secured victory for his team with an 80th-minute goal against England, leaving his mark in a thrilling 1-0 win.
The Real Madrid-bound teenager showcased his prowess on the international stage, becoming the youngest male goalscorer for club or country at Wembley, aged just 17 years and 246 days. Endrick’s decisive strike came in the dying moments of the match, as he capitalized on a rebound from Vinicius Junior’s shot to slot the ball into an unguarded net.
Endrick’s goal not only secured victory for Brazil but also marked his first international goal in his third appearance for the national team. His performance, rewarded by coach Dorival Junior’s faith, underscored his potential as he prepares to embark on his journey with Real Madrid after the summer finals in the United States.
The friendly clash against England served as valuable preparation for both nations ahead of their continental cup competitions. While England aims for European Championship glory, Brazil seeks to reclaim the Copa America title, with the victory at Wembley providing a morale boost for the Selecao.
Looking ahead, Endrick could feature prominently in Brazil’s upcoming fixture against Spain, offering Dorival Junior additional firepower as they conclude the international break.
As the Selecao regroup at the end of the season, all eyes will be on Endrick as he continues to make waves on the global stage, both for his country and his future club, Real Madrid.
