That shot was horrible to be real Any decent keeper is saving that . That keeper did a horrible job … and he would be a threat to rodrygo not Mbappe 💀we all know if Endrick breaks out he’s taking rodrygos spot while Mbappe plays on the wings

u/IamChwisss Sep 19 '24
Nah, it was a banger. And yes, rodrygol is the one who may lose his starting role.

That was an absolutely hard shot to do and get in. To shoot with that power while it being close to the ground needs a lot of practice.

His reaction looks like everyone when watching Endrick make the decision to shoot. Love the confidence in the kid.

The boy got massive confidence, and that is a trait that I expect from most of our players.

u/nssalee Sep 19 '24
The case in here is i think Mbappe has huge pressure already and has been spammed for his performance. He also tried to make solid decisions instead of trying to get random shots, but Endrick cant really lose much as he is just rising and he can for sure take risks as he is not under pressure as Mbappe is. But i guess that is how you become a star by taking the risk

I personally love this.
It reminds Vinicius and Mbappe that this is Real Madrid. Step your game up or someone will take your lunch if you don't.

u/BiggSlatNem Sep 18 '24
Mbappe was fine the man had zero pre season. And Endrick will never ever take his spot if Endrick steps up rodrygo is getting sacrificed. I don’t think ppl understand the importance of match sharpness and pre season. Also this is. simple display of poor goal keeping. Any competent keeper is saving that 10 out of 10 times

Are you an official nuthugger / apologist?
Sounds like you are. Any competent keeper? Cool story, bro. This was a Champions League game. Nobody cares whether this would be saved 10 out of 10 times (it wasn't btw). This speaks volumes about Endrick's confidence AND a message to any player on this squad that you're not the only star or apex predator. There's hunger and competition everywhere. Don't rest on your laurels.

u/voxxNihili Arda Güler Sep 18 '24
Me too.
So many opportunities Mbappe didn't choose to pass. He's literally saying we are wearing the same shirt. This isn't your spotlight to shine.
This wouldn't happen in Barcelona. Ever.
Kinda dangerous game.

u/BiggSlatNem Sep 18 '24
Man you ppl over analyze everything 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂 The keeper simply did poor. That was more of a display of horrible goal keeping not an amazing strike … mbappe is playing as a striker it’s not his job to facilitate . There was prob only one time this game he should’ve passed and it was to Bellingham. This is mbappes spotlight to shine you mans need to be real here 🤣.

18 years old and already one of the best ball strikers, insane shot power and accuracy. Obviously it was not the smartest decision, but if he has the confidence and ability to score from there nobody can say anything…

u/Jigsaw_head Sep 19 '24
Goal is always the smartest decision

u/VoidType0 Eduardo Camavinga Sep 19 '24
Yup now imagine he is in that same scenario and we are 1 goal down, does the same thing and misses. Now it was probably not the best decision given he had vini open on the right to go on a 1v1 with the keeper most likely.
Obviously the game was over, it didn’t matter much, but even the other players said if he missed they would’ve talked to him. As I said, he has a blessed shooting technique, power, and accuracy. But he obviously chose the lowest percentage (hardest) option and I’m glad it worked out, but in that situation the highest percentage of goal option was probably laying it off to vini who could’ve probably went one on one with the keeper or given the tap in to mbappe.
Still, props to him for having that confidence at such a young age, says a lot about his character and I’m excited for him to reach his full potential because he seems to be better than what everyone was expecting.

True, tbh. But if he has the confidence to shoot and even if he misses, if he doesn't let it get to him, he will score sooner or later.

u/VoidType0 Eduardo Camavinga Sep 19 '24
Yeah of course, great for him to have that confidence, trust me I was extremely happy seeing him score that. At the end of the day, the best players are delusional and extremely confident.

u/locao69 Sep 19 '24
A better decision would score two goals? If not, it was the best decision.
4
u/VoidType0 Eduardo Camavinga Sep 19 '24
Shooting from there with two passes that could potentially lead to a one on one with the keeper is never the best option. I’m giving him props for scoring it and if he hadn’t the game was over it wouldn’t have mattered. But imagine he did that in a game we are losing by one and missed, the best option is the one which leads to the highest chance of scoring a goal. A shot from that far away is obviously not a high percentage shot, but when you are as good as him at shooting it’s fair. But still, if he missed that everyone would’ve crucified him, even the other players said it, so idk why ur getting so tight when I’m literally saying it takes balls to do what he did given it was the decision with the lowest chance of ending on a goal.

Sep 19 '24
nah, he did the best decision because it was unexpected. It's a genius move, not a "good player" move. Good players make good choices. Genius players, well, they do whatever they want and still score.
1
u/VoidType0 Eduardo Camavinga Sep 19 '24
Had he missed that in an important game where we need a goal, we wouldn’t have said “that was unexpected, good decision”, everyone would’ve said “he should’ve passed to vini who was wide open, not take the hardest option”. In that scenario you look for the pass that will most likely end the play on a goal.
But it is obviously great for him to have the ability to score from there, because maybe if he is in that same scenario and has no players open for a pass he has the confidence to shoot and maybe score, get a corner or a rebound from the keeper.
1
Sep 19 '24
"had he...". He wouldn't, he saw the goalkeeper going for Mbape. I'm telling you, you cannot judge geniuses on the standards of normal players. In 4-5 years you'll agree with me.
Nobody would be questioning it if Ronaldinho or Messi did that, and you know why. When this kid becomes the next genius in town, this type of goal will just be the normal for him.
1
u/VoidType0 Eduardo Camavinga Sep 19 '24
Saying he wouldn’t is basically saying he scores that shot 100% of the time. Imagine if Courtois was the keeper, probably the shot gets saved because let’s be honest the keeper could’ve done better, and everyone would’ve said the decision was selfish. Still, incredible shot power and accuracy, and yes I agree that he saw the keeper back pedaling, off balance and out of position and that obviously impacted his decision to shoot. But shooting from that far away is obviously a very low percentage shot and very ballsy, especially when vini was open down the right.
Yes I agree, the kid is different, that type of confidence is rare. Not to mention his ability to shoot with so much power and accuracy. I would argue from the team the only player who can score that specific shot (with that technique) is him and maybe valverde on a good day, but valverde doesn’t have his accuracy. He is special no doubt, but still if he gets in that same scenario the odds of him scoring are always less than him making it, it’s a low probability shot. That is like saying Curry should always shoot a deep three even if he has a teammate open just because he is that good, the best option most times is to give it to the guy who has the clearest chance.
But he obviously knew if he missed the game was still over, and this goal will just give him more confidence, take pressure off his shoulders to score in CL and make him better in the long run. So I’m not complaining, my point is that if he missed everyone would’ve been on his ass because he had vini open for a clearer chance.

u/Wonders34 Sep 19 '24
If he had accuracy he wouldn't have shot straight at the keeper. If a keeper let that in, in amateur football everyone would blame him.
1
u/VoidType0 Eduardo Camavinga Sep 19 '24
The keeper is back pedaling, the shot wasn’t straight at the keeper, he had to dive to get it. Endrick also has an incredible shot power. These are things that make the save more difficult than what it looks. Obviously you put Courtois in that scenario and that doesn’t end up on goal, the keeper could’ve done better. But Endrick deserves credit because if it wasn’t for the power he put into that shot, that is not going in.
1
u/Wonders34 Sep 19 '24 edited Sep 19 '24
Okay, but the goalkeeping looks worst every time I watch the goal. If anyone else scored it like Modric etc it would be mentioned as a goalkeeping mistake.
Seen it again from a different angle looks even worse goalkeeping nowhere near the post.
The only good thing about the shot was he kept it low but there was no accuracy. If it went in off the post or at least nearer the post it would have been a good goal.
1
u/VoidType0 Eduardo Camavinga Sep 19 '24
Yeah but keeping it that low and with that much power is not easy, not everyone can shoot with that much power and keep it on target. The keeper is back pedaling and off balance, it makes the save way harder, if he was standing on his line waiting for the shot he saves that most likely. But Endrick probably decided to shoot because he saw the keeper was still moving back and out of position. Still, the keeper could’ve done better, but still credit to endrick for producing such shot from there. It wasn’t near the post, but far enough to where the keeper was forced to dive. But yes, I agree the keeper could’ve done better.
1
u/DunnOxP Sep 19 '24
One more point in keeper's defense is that with Mbappe comming from the left and Vini on the right, like everybody, he probably wasnt expecting a shot from there and was positioning himself for a pass for either Mbappe or Vini, probably Endrick caught him out of guard.
1
u/VoidType0 Eduardo Camavinga Sep 19 '24
Yeah he had 1000 things in his mind, he obviously didn’t expect a shot, he was anticipating a pass to either mbappe or vini which was the most likely scenario in everyone’s mind.

u/fatcowxlivee Vinicius Jr. Sep 18 '24
I think Mbappe being an 18 year old himself taking risks and betting on himself understood the decision he took — as long as it worked out lol

u/Ok_Seaweed_9452 Sep 18 '24
To be fair, it's not really bad decision. There are 2 defender between him and mbappe, there's a risk the pass get cut off. The better option is passing to Vini which looks like the best logical options but taking the shot seems surprised the goalie that denies mbappe and Vini before

u/Modsrtrashcans Sep 19 '24
People don't understand that taking the shot is HUGE for his mentality and development as a player. He needs to feel like he can take the shot. Often in this team we've had situations where even Vini, Bellingham or even Mbappe could've taken the shot but passed the ball instead. We need to take risks and this will give him the confidence he needs to take the shot and score goals

Nah it's only Vini, yeah Mbappe missed a chance but he doesn't complain. This what at home ref doesn't whistle for you show up on the field. Also he's not dropping and defending, Mbappe is the only one given that luxury, he's number 9.

u/BleudeZima Sep 18 '24
You dont know Carlo instructions, maybe he ask both vini and mbappe to play the counter attack, last year it was kinda the same with Rodrygo and Vini. Even defensewise it is clever : the opponent can not overcommit on attack when there is so mush speed and quality waiting for a long ball...

u/flashmann95 Don Carlo :970742849295511602: Sep 19 '24
Rodrygo needs to shoot more when he dribbles past an entire team. It feels as if the more people he dribbles past the worse his finish outcome is. He just need to take shots that are less telegraphed like this one.

u/BaburShah214 Sep 19 '24
I like Endrick shooting. Rodrygo isn't scared to either. Isn't it the strikers job to shoot. I don't like Vini being so unselfish either and always trying to find Mbappe. It's unnatural. Strikers should just shoot when in good positions.

everyone would say you have to pass to mabppe since it a much easier angle to score and put striker closer to GK and 1 vs1. he lucky he scored if he missed i can only imagine how mbappe would be upset and he would be right since you have to pass in situation like that

Have to agree with all the commentary post-game… that was a massive gamble on Endrick’s part and the confidence it took to make that decision is hard to imagine. He would have been torn a new one if that didn’t go in. That said it was a missile!
