Brazil has a new king. Palmeiras achieved its second Brasileirao in a row with Endrick as one of the main protagonists of the team, and this was proven on the closing day of the Brazilian championship. The young striker opened the scoring midway through the 17th to bring the title closer to Verdão and also surpassed Neymar to become the 11-year-old player who scored the most goals in a season with 10 goals compared to his compatriot’s 12 goals.

In what could be Abel Ferreira’s last game on the Palmeiras bench, Endrick scored his fifth goal in the last seven games, and since he dazzled against Botafogo, he has not stopped looking at the back of the net easily. The Portuguese coach’s confidence is crucial to seeing the best version of Real Madrid’s next big star. Before opening the scoring, the Brazilian had two almost identical actions but did not go in due to the good success of the Cruzeiro goalkeeper. However, he did not miss the third shot on goal. The funny thing is that it came after a mistake by an older player wearing a white shirt. Lucas Silva failed to control the ball, leaving Endrick completely alone against Rafael Cabral.
Coach Verdão had previously removed Endrick after twenty minutes to avoid any kind of injury due to the fact that in the first half he gave a small scare for nothing because he tried to continue without any problems. He also brought in Estevão, known as Messinho, to make his first-team debut as a reward for his superb role in the U-17 World Cup.
After the draw, the results remained unchanged, and Endrick and Palmeiras were Brazilian champions for the second year in a row. The Brazilian star’s next big test won’t come until the end of May 2024, when the Paulista tournament kicks off and he plays in the Brazilian Super Cup final against Sao Paulo, and that will be in the summer when he arrives. Real Madrid docks.
