Endrick, a scorer for Real Madrid, was very lucky not to get a red card in their most recent game on Tuesday.
This was because of what the Brazilian did near the end of Real’s La Liga game against Deportivo Alavés.
The Real Madrid team just got back to action by hosting Alavés in the city of Spain. They were looking for their fifth straight win in all competitions.
In the end, this is exactly what Carlo Ancelotti’s team did, thanks to goals from Lucas Vázquez, Kylian Mbappé, and Rodrygo.
As was already said, though, Real Madrid’s otherwise good night on Tuesday could have easily gone badly in the last few minutes.
In a fit of pique, the young lead singer Endrick caused this to happen.
When the new player for Alavés was pushed back while trying to get into the penalty area, he reacted foolishly by putting a knee right into the groin of an opposing defender.
After a VAR review, however, the 18-year-old player got away with only a yellow card, even though most people thought the “challenge” should have earned him a red card.
