Brazil 2-3 Mexico, Endrick’s late goal lifts Brazil past Mexico

Brazil and Mexico faced off in an intense match that ended with a 3-2 victory for Brazil. This thrilling game showcased the skill and determination of both teams as they battled it out on the field.

One of the standout moments of the match was Endrick's late goal, which ultimately lifted Brazil past Mexico. Endrick's goal came at a crucial moment in the game and proved to be the deciding factor in Brazil's victory.

Brazil presents a completely different outlook. The five-time World Cup champions arrive at this competition with high expectations, being one of the main contenders to lift the trophy this summer.

Brazil doubled its lead nine minutes after the break when Eder Militao’s long throw-in was met by Yan Couto, who flicked the ball back into the area for Gabriel Martinelli to tap in alone.

The Mexicans weren’t done yet, though, scoring in the 73rd minute through Julian Quinones, who converted a superb cross from Alexis Vega, before Guillermo Martinez Ayala equalised in added time at the 92th, only for Brazilian wunderkind Endrick to seal the win four minutes after.

Vinicius Jr., fresh off winning his second UEFA Champions League title, took on two Mexican defenders and cut inside to deliver a rising cross towards the far post. With two defenders on Vinicius Jr., that left open space in the box and Endrick found it before finishing with a flick of his head past Mexican goalkeeper Julio Gonzalez. It's the third-straight game that the 17-year-old striker has scored for Brazil.

Brazil went up early in the match as Savinho found Andreas Pereira in the box and he patiently waited for all the Mexico defenders to go to ground before firing home. And again in the second half down the right wing, Yan Couto delivered a great pass to Martinelli who placed it in the goal. But Mexico kept pushing and a Brazil turnover turned into a goal by Quinones from Vega. Then, soon after coming in, Guillermo Martinez won a header off a corner by a fellow substitute, Jordy Cortizo, and then Martinez was fastest to the rebound and smashed it home.
