Brazilian champions Palmeiras continued their surge towards retaining their Brazilian Serie A crown with a draw against Fortaleza.
Abel Ferreira's side had to overcome a red card and a one-goal deficit to rally for a draw on the night.
However, amid the fighting and resilient spirit displayed on the night by the Brazilian league leaders, young forward Endrick Felipe stole the spotlight, albeit in a less-than-impressive manner.
The young forward who Marca reports signed for Real Madrid ahead of his move slated for June 2024, has been on immense form since breaking onto the scene in the Brazilian league.

FootballThe 17-year-old who has struggled to handle the media spotlight punched Fortaleza defender Christian Tarouco, popularly referred to as Titi.
The 35-year-old defender who was tasked with stopping the young forward on the night appeared to have Endrick frustrated, and the young Real Madrid forward showed his frustration by punching the veteran defender, as reported by Football Espana.
While Endrick was lucky to escape punishment, he will surely require lessons on how to maintain his composure in frustrating encounters like the one against Fortaleza, given the huge pressure that comes with donning the Real Madrid jersey.
Palmeiras will hope their marquee forward can keep his cool as they surge through the hurdle of the final lap of the season.
