Spain and Brazil finished 3-3 at Estadio Santiago Bernabéu in a friendly against racism as Vini Jr. captained his country for the 1st time in his international career.
The home side took the lead in the 12th minute when Rodri converted a controversial penalty that was given for a foul against Lamine Yamal. Dani Olmo doubled Spain’s lead in the 36th minute after a fantastic individual job by the RB Leipzig’s midfielder inside the away side penalty box as Lamine Yamal provided the assist.

However, 4 minutes later, Unai Simon made a huge mistake and passed the ball to Rodrygo, who scored in the 40th minute to make his country’s trail only 1 goal after the 1st half.

Endrick replaced Raphinha at halftime, and the teenager needed only 5 minutes on the pitch to score and make it 2-2 at Bernabeu.
However, in the 87th minute, Rodri converted another penalty and gave Spain 3-2 lead with his 2nd goal in the game minutes before the end of the match. However, that wasn’t all, as Brazil also received penalty in the final moments of the extra time and Lucas Paqueta converted for the final 3-3 in Madrid.
