Spain held by late Brazil equaliser in Madrid thriller

Spain were unable to hold on as Brazil snatched a dramatic late 3-3 draw in Madrid.

La Roja kicked off 2024 with a 1-0 loss against Colombia in London last week and the hosts were seeking a reaction at the Estadio Santiago Bernabeu.

Luis de la Fuente made 10 starting changes for the clash at the Estadio Santiago Bernabeu with an eye towards his plan for Euro 2024.

Manchester City star Rodri Hernandez got the ball rolling, on a goal filled night in the Spanish capital, as he slotted home from the penalty spot, as part of his role as captain for the night.

Dani Olmo’s quickly doubled Spain’s lead before the break but Rodrygo Goes chipped home before the half time whistle.

The excitement continued after the restart as Endrick Felipe followed up his winning goal against England to equalise for Brazil.

The incoming Real Madrid star continues to attract attention during the international break with another superbly taken goal.

Rodri tucked home from the spot late, as Spain looked set edge out a victory, but Brazil had the final say, as Lucas Paqueta scored from the spot in the sixth minute of added time.

Spain have just one friendly game before Euro 2024 kicks off on June 14 as they take on Andorra the week before.

  1. Lmao roque who?

    I mean, I dont blame the coach, obviously you will select the player that a. Is better than the other and b. Gives the team higher chances to win.
    With 2 goals in 2 games now, Endrick paid back the faith placed in him and galvanized his place at the expense of… whatshisface on the bench for upcoming call ups. Sublime volley finish too, getting that valuable experience at such tender age is invaluable – thats how legends are made.

    But dont be sad, arselona fans. You can always put on a video game and watch roque play. HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA 🫵🤣

    1. delusional fool probably forgot about the Spain number 19 who pocketed the whole Brazilian team including crynisuis

      2. lets in 2 goals

        “pockted the whole team”

        When coping overload causes your head to shortcircuit. Barcelona kind of stupidity.

  2. Why exactly would we or should we be sad ? when we already have 2 diamonds a 16 year old yamine lamal and a 17 year old pau cubarsi already representing their country at the highest level and thriving for both club and country lol.

    2. That is great, so does Real.
      Only difference being all of our diamonds are playing while yours aren’t.

      1. There is no difference because gavi,pedri,balde,torres are all currently out injured otherwise all 4 would be in the squad
        and be playing.

          1. Im quite aware roque currently isn’t and endrick currently is considering the current brazil coach was only appointed in January common sense would tell you that brazil are doing a rebuild and that the new coach will have his own ideas,likes and dislikes and who am i or anybody else to tell him who to pick and who not to.

          2. Victor roque is 19 years of age still acclimatising and settling in at his new club and in a new country something endrick will still have to do himself hence why endrick has been playing regularly back in brazil for his club and hence why the new brazil coach is obviously going to pick him and not pick victor roque who for the reasons i have already mentioned has not been playing regularly at his club.

          3. That’s great, but nobody cares about your word salads. Endrick is playing because he is better.
            Once again, you got shafted.

          4. Common sense and half a brain would tell you that every decent international manager worth one’s salt in world football today no matter what country it is is going to call up and play players who are regularly playing for their clubs over players who are not this isn’t something new this is what actually happens facts so please stop acting and playing stupid yourself.

          5. Obviously and players that are good won’t sit on bench but play. Endrick plays all the time despite being younger.

            You really aren’t this stupid, are you? I mean, you seem illiterate when you write, but stupidity isn’t tied to illiteracy.

          6. Thats rich coming from someone who doesn’t even understand how football works himself,you would quite obviously be better off sticking to a sport like running or something less complex so as not to hurt that very small brain of yours any more.

          7. Your inability to give substantial response is interpreted as you have been checkmatted.

            I expected nothing better from illiterate idiots, frankly speaking.

  3. My responses to the actual football issues are facts and more than adequate and substantial imo if you dont like or accept that and have to lower yourself and resort to calling someone an illiterate idiot just because they have a different view or opinion to your own views then that’s your problem not mine.

    1. I call it as it is, you can’t even spell your own players name correctly, illiterate idiot.

      Camavinga didn’t need acclimatisation period, because he is actually a good player, Roque is on bench because he isn’t giving coach a reason to play him.

      Back to square one, you got the worse player. Keep crying.

      1. And so do i shows your personality and mindset when your obviously nitpicking over a silly spelling mistake and automatically calling people with differing opinions and views to your own illiterate idiots lol,again your grasping at straws here with camavinga totally different player,totally different positions,totally different countries.

        1. It’s not literally the tip of the iceberg, your replies are riddled with idiot-level errors. It’s obvious that you’re an unskilled liar.

          Hahah oh, so now it’s “not the same”. Seems symptomatic that you retort to manipulation when you’re losing an argument. However this is definitely exposing you as an illiterate ignoramus: Vinicus played almost the whole time despite being sidelined for 10 liga matches due to injury in his premiere season and scored 12 times with 3 assists. Same country.

          Now you can resume crying over getting worse player.

          1. I don’t have to cry for anything mate especially after hearing and seeing the bernabeu crowd that very night standing to their feet and applauding with great excitement and joy every time our very own home made,self created diamond lamine yamal got on or even touched the ball i think you will find that i will resume being excited and joyful much like the bernabeu was that night lol.

          2. No not switching subjects at all im simply just providing reasons as to why I’m not going to be crying over anything like you would like and want me to.

          3. Saying that you have another good player when subject is about Roque is you retorting to coping. I understand you.
            You got the worse player for same money as we paid.

      2. Look at the end of the day you support real i support barca you have your opinions and views on football and players which your entitled to and i have mine which im also entitled to you are of the opinion endrick is better than roque i am not we are going to stand up and support players who play for our supported clubs facts.

          1. Indeed it is great our investment has already pulled on the barca shirt,has already played for the club and has already scored goals for the club unlike endrick. Bye now.

          2. all hail the greatest idiot to ever live 😂 they is no end to your stupidity! like Mr cry baby didn’t sit in the bench for his first season at Santiago 😂.
            that Same bench warmer of that time is the same guy you people gave the number 7 shirt to

          3. You talking about yourself “don’t understand what pocketed means”- loid?

            At this point in his season he played twice the benchwarmers matches and scored 500% goals lmao.
            Is this the same midget I destroyed earlier? The illiteracy + idiocy combo certainly lets me believe that. Why are you using different names, what is wrong with you?

            Nice to see that I hurt you so bad you decided to come back for another beatdown.

  4. playing stupid.

    He isn’t playing, that is the sad part.
    He really is this mind numbingly stupid.
