Jude Bellingham hurried to give his Real Madrid teammates hugs following Saturday’s friendly loss of England to Brazil at Wembley.
WHAT HAPPENED?
During an international friendly at Wembley Stadium, Brazil defeated England 1-0. Endrick, 17, scored the game’s lone goal after substituting in. Following the final siren, Bellingham, an English player, hurried over to the Brazil bench to give club teammates Vinicius Jr. and Rodrygo a hug. He even greeted the teenager who would become Endrick of Los Blancos, giving him a friendly slap before giving him an embrace, probably in joke for his last-minute winner.
At 17 years and 246 days, future Los Blancos star Endrick became the youngest male footballer to score at Wembley in club and international football. He is the fourth-youngest goalscorer in Selecao’s history after Pele, Edu and Ronaldo.
Before facing Belgium on Tuesday, the former Dortmund player will play one more game for the Three Lions before meeting the Brazilian great at Santiago Bernabeu. Harry Kane, the captain, will not be joining him, though, after Gareth Southgate announced his withdrawal due to an ankle injury.
