Real Madrid cruised to a 3-1 win over Stuttgart in their Champions League opener, with 18-year-old Endrick Felipe grabbing attention for his decisive goal.

The young forward scored a remarkable 25-yard strike late in the game, helping Madrid seal the win.

Real Madrid coach Carlo Ancelotti praised Endrick’s confidence in taking the shot instead of passing.

“He has balls because it was a counterattack, and he had the courage to shoot,” said Ancelotti.

Despite the win, Ancelotti admitted the match wasn’t without challenges.

“We’ve had difficult moments, but it’s normal. You always have to suffer, especially at the beginning when you’re not at your best,” he said.
