What a debut! 🤩 Brazilian wonderkid Endrick needed just 10 minutes to make his mark with Real Madrid! ⚽️✨
Coming on as a late substitute for Kylian Mbappé, the 18-year-old sensation wasted no time, netting a stunning goal deep into stoppage time. His strike sealed Los Blancos' 3-0 victory over Real Valladolid on Sunday. 🥳🏆
At just 18 years and 35 days old, Endrick has now become the youngest foreign player to score for Real Madrid in La Liga history, overtaking French defender Raphael Varane, who was 18 years and 152 days old when he scored back in 2011. 🥇🏅
\"He's looking very good and he has a lot of potential,\" gushed coach Carlo Ancelotti about his new prodigy. \"He has shown his quality very quickly with his control, and he's got a very powerful shot. He's a center-forward and very dangerous in tight spaces.\" 🚀🎯
This win marks Real Madrid's first league victory of the season after a 1-1 draw with Mallorca last weekend. The Santiago Bernabéu Stadium was buzzing, especially with Mbappé making his home debut as a Madridista! 🏟️🔥
Although Mbappé hasn't found the net in La Liga yet, he did score in Madrid's UEFA Super Cup triumph over Atalanta earlier this season. Keep an eye out—big things are coming! 👀🌟
With young talents like Endrick stepping up and stars like Mbappé leading the way, Real Madrid fans have a lot to be excited about! Hala Madrid! 🇪🇸💪
