Brazil wonderkid Endrick's classy tribute to Manchester United legend after goal vs England

Real Madrid's incoming wonderkid Endrick has paid tribute to Manchester United legend Sir Bobby Charlton after scoring his first international goal against England on Saturday evening.

The 17-year-old currently represents Palmeiras in South America but will be making the move to the La Liga giants in the summer. Brazil's latest sensation stole the headlines after coming off the bench to tap home the winner for his country on only his third international appearance.

Endrick could have added another in stoppage time but Jordan Pickford did well one-on-one to deny him. After the game, the clearly emotional teenager explained to Brazil's media about what the moment meant to him and gave a classy tribute for Charlton who died in October last year.

As quoted by Metro, the forward said: "A guy who is an idol here is also Bobby Charlton, playing in the stadium that Bobby played, scoring on the day Ronaldo debuted. These are very important memories for me.

"I was just thinking about that (the goal), I couldn’t think about the game anymore, it even hurt me a little. It’s a unique memory.

"My family is here, my girlfriend, my managers. I’m not much of a crier, I’m holding back, but it’s something unique and I’m very happy."

Saturday night was also a special night for one of United's rising stars. Kobbie Mainoo replaced Chelsea's Conor Gallagher with 15 minutes remaining to make his debut for the national team.

The Stockport-born midfielder will be hoping he did enough during his cameo to earn himself his first full cap on Tuesday night when the Three Lions return to Wembley to take on Belgium.
