In a thrilling match that saw six goals, Spain narrowly clinched victory over Brazil in the dying moments…

In an international friendly match against Spain, Brazil managed to secure a draw. The match ended in a 3-3 tie at Santiago Bernabéu, home of Real Madrid, where Luis Fuentes’ men started strong from the outset. Within the first 11 minutes, João Gomes fouled Lamille Jamal in the box, granting Spain a penalty. Rodrigo made no mistake from the spot, putting Spain ahead 1-0. Buoyed by their early lead, the Spaniards continued to press. In the 36th minute, Dani Olmo extended Spain’s lead to 2-0 after a stellar play initiated by Lamille Jamal. Just before halftime, Spain’s goalkeeper Unai Simón’s missed pass allowed Rodrigo to narrow the deficit to 2-1.

At the start of the second half, André replaced Rafinha on the field. Despite being one of the world’s top clubs like Real Madrid, André, Brazil’s 17-year-old forward, demonstrated his worth despite being much younger and less expensive, recently scoring a goal against England in an international friendly.
