In a thrilling friendly match, Brazil emerged victorious over Mexico with a scoreline of 3-2. The spotlight, however, was on the young prodigy Endrick, a forward for Palmeiras, who is soon set to join Real Madrid. Endrick's journey to this historic moment began in the 61st minute of the match when he replaced Evanilson.

As the match progressed into its final moments, the 17-year-old sensation seized his opportunity. In the 90th minute, after receiving an assist from Vinicius Junior, Endrick netted the decisive goal, securing the win for Brazil. This goal was not just another addition to his growing list of accomplishments; it marked a significant milestone in his budding career.

Endrick's performance in the match against Mexico cemented his place in history as the second youngest player to score three goals for the Brazilian national team. The only player to achieve this feat at a younger age was the legendary Pele. This remarkable achievement underscores Endrick's potential to follow in the footsteps of one of football's greatest icons.

To date, Endrick has appeared in three matches for the Brazilian national team, scoring three goals, two of which were game-winners. His impact on the field is evident, and his future looks incredibly promising. For now, fans of Palmeiras can still enjoy watching their number 9 in action as he continues to demonstrate his extraordinary talent.

This young star's journey is just beginning, and the football world eagerly anticipates what he will achieve next.
