English newspaper Daily Mail has highlighted the good moments of Endrick and Germán Cano. Both are living a good phase, as pointed out in Matt Barlow’s Monday column; the latter was the main responsible of Fluminense’s conquest of Copa Libertadores, with 13 goals in twelves, whereas the first was called up for the Brazilian National Team and might make his debut this Thursday (16) against Colombia.

“The young centre forward inspired a spectacular fightback earlier this month with two goals and an assist as they came from three down against title rivals Botafogo to win 4-3 in the 99th minute. He scored the only goal against Athletico Paranaense three days later and scored another in a 3-0 win against Internacional,” he wrote.

Alongside Endrick, Barlow also pointed out that another young player born in 2006 has been excelling: Warren Zaire-Emery of Paris Saint-Germain.

Germán Cano’s mention contrasts with the kids, as he is 35-years-old and never got called-up for the Argentina National Team. Barlow pointed out that him and Fluminense will be in the Club World Cup next month, in Saudi Arabia. The main expectation is a final between the Brazilian team and Manchester City.

“Perhaps the antidote to the wonderkid clamour is 35-year-old Argentinian striker Germán Cano, voted the best player of the Copa Libertadores after leading Brazil’s Fluminense to the title, beating Boca Juniors in the final. He scored 13 in a dozen games in South America’s elite club competition, and his reward will be to spearhead the team at the Club World Cup next month.”
