‘New generation’ – Vinícius Jr. responds to Endrick’s match-winning goal vs England

Real Madrid star Vinícius Jr. has taken to social media, to provide his response to fellow countryman and incoming Blancos teammate Endrick’s match-winning exploits on Saturday.

The name of frontman Endrick, of course, took its place front and centre in the headlines across the world of football late last night.

As much came upon the starlet, still just 17, proving himself decisive in Brazil’s friendly meeting with England.

Introduced off the bench during the 2nd-half at Wembley, Endrick quickly made his presence felt, showcasing his goalscoring instincts to slot home on the rebound after Vinícius’ initial effort was kept out by Jordan Pickford.

This proved the only goal of the evening in the English capital, ensuring a special night for the Seleção’s latest up-and-coming superstar.

And, as alluded to above, one fellow member of Dorival’s star-studded squad who was quick to reveal his appreciation for the endeavours of his compatriot was Vinícius Jr.

Ahead of linking up with Endrick at club level with La Liga giants Real Madrid this summer, wide-man Vini took to his official ‘X’ account, to unveil a simple message:

‘A new chapter! A new generation!’
