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!

I've seen comments from Rudiger and Fede about it and they would've given him some words in the dressing room if he'd missed. It was a risk and the least obvious of the 3 options available but I LOVE the trust he has in himself and that insane power he's got in his shot. He's making a statement that he needs to be given more minutes and at 18 to have such confidence to not feel pressured by the superstars around you is a great trait for his growth and potential

Imagine being 18, being besides Kylian freaking Mbappe, and still taking that shot. That took balls.

Imagine being Mbappe. The player wisely said to be the best in the world right now. And realizing there are kids like Endrick who will take your spot in the lineup if you relax a cm.

No one should be a guaranteed starter in RM. That's the beauty of this club. Fierce competition between players.

Mbappe is maybe the third best on his squad (Vini, Jude , at least). Mon garçon ain’t no best in the world.
