Real Madrid got their Champions League title defence off to a flying start, beating Stuttgart 3-1 on Tuesday. And Endrick shone.

It was not easy for Real, as it took two late goals from Antonio Rudiger and Endrick Felipe to secure the victory.

Endrick’s goal was a beautiful strike from 25 yards, which was applauded by many Real Madrid fans. Carlo Ancelotti also praised the 18-year-old for having the courage to shoot from that position, rather than passing to a nearby teammate – quotes via Diario AS.

Endrick praised for his courage

“He has balls, because it was a counterattack and he had the courage to shoot.” Ancelotti also gave his opinion on the 90 minutes that took place at the Santiago Bernabeu.

” It was good. We had some difficult moments, but that’s normal. I don’t remember an easy match. You always have to suffer, especially at the beginning, when you’re not at your best and things are a bit tougher. The match could have been over after the equaliser, but we had the strength to score again.”
