Brazil won against England 1-0 in a friendly match at Wembley as the winning goal netted Palmeiras teenager and future Real Madrid forward Endrick in the 80th minute. That was just his 3rd game for the Brazilian national team, and with his goal, he ended the Seleção’s 3-match winless run vs. the Three Lions.
Dorival Júnior started his period as Brazil’s manager by starting 5 debutants. Vini Jr. demanded a penalty in the 16th minute but the official declined to give it. Only 11 minutes later, Declan Rice asked for a penalty but the referee again declined to give it.

Kyle Walker left injured in the 20th minute as Ezri Konsa replaced him.
Lucas Paqueta had the best chance in the 1st half to score but his shot comes back off the left post.
Manchester United teenager Kobbie Mainoo made his debut for England in the 75th minute when he replaced Conor Gallagher. However, another substitute was the big hero, as Endrick, who replaced Rodrygo in the 71st minute, netted the winning goal in the 80th minute after securing the rebound of the Vinicius Junior shot and scoring into an empty net.
🇧🇷 Endrick becomes the youngest ever player to score a club/country goal at Wembley.
He’s also the youngest player to score for Brazil since Ronaldo ‘Fenomeno’ in 1994.

Endrick had a chance to score another goal alone against the goalkeeper in the last attack in the match in extra time, but Pickford saved his shot.
