Apart from the usual presence of Éder Militão, Vinicius Junior, and Rodrygo Goes, Endrick made his debut and scored his first goal at the Santiago Bernabéu.

Endrick celebrates first goal in Madrid debut
Sunday afternoon (25th) was definitely special for Endrick, who managed to score in his first official match as a Real Madrid player.
“I am very happy. It’s a dream come true. I had already played at the Bernabéu with the Brazilian national team and scored, but it wasn’t with Real Madrid. Today was my official debut, and I also made my LaLiga debut,” said the 18-year-old after the match.
“I’m speechless. I can only thank God for everything that is happening to me. I always tried to win for all the people of Brazil, but now also for the people of Spain. I want us to be united and for them to enjoy every game. I am very happy to be with these great players, whom I only saw in video games. It’s very important for me,” he added.
