Brazilian media praise Endrick after his 15 minutes against Croatia
Brazilian wonder kid Endrick made his case to feature on Brazil’s list for the upcoming FIFA World Cup with a brilliant 15-minute cameo off the bench against Croatia. Endrick changed the course of the game and helped Ancelotti’s team comeback against Croatia by creating the penalty which gave them the lead and then delivering and assist to Martinelli in Brazil’s third goal. “He did what Neymar was supposed to do in just 15 minutes.
He was Neymar in those 15 minutes. This stint off the bench could very well change the outcome of Brazil’s fate in the World Cup,” said the Brazilian press. Endrick has been in good form since he left Real Madrid to join Lyon on a loan deal and it looks like he will surely be an important madridista next season.
If he can make an impact for Brazil in the upcoming World Cup, his status inside the team might be even more prominent.
