Real Madrid striker Endrick talked to the press right after winning the Man of the Match award following the team’s comeback win against Roma in the Champions League. Endrick came off the bench and along Güler and Carlos Espí allowed Real Madrid to turn things around.
“I’m still feeling the emotion of the match. I was on the bench talking to God. When I looked to the side, Nuno was calling me. I went on and kept talking to God because I thought I wasn’t going to come in so early. I entered the game and was able to do what I love most, which is playing football. This is where I want to be, on the pitch playing and helping my team. I feel I can help everyone, not just the team but also the coach. And the most important thing is for Madrid to win. Madrid has to win, and that’s what I will do my entire life at Madrid. And when I can’t do that, I’ll be the first to leave. Being at Madrid is tough; you have to fight every day, and I’ll do that my entire career,” he said.
Endrick explained how he felt when he came off the bench.
“Honestly, it’s tough. I was talking to Mourinho, and when we looked up, Malen was scoring another goal. At first, it was offside, but then it wasn’t, and it made the game a bit more complicated. But we are Madrid, and we were going to fight all game long, no matter the score. And we did what we did, from 3-1 to 4-3, and we’ll keep fighting. We still have the Champions, the Copa del Rey, LaLiga, the Supercup… We want to win every competition,” he added.

As of right now, Endrick did not want to reveal whether or not he sees his role changing going forward.
“I don’t know, because the coaches won’t do what’s best for one player; they’ll do what’s best for the team. And if I have to play, I’m sure he’ll put me in; and if I’m not going to play, he won’t. I’ll keep fighting and working every day to help the team, no matter how: in training, fighting and battling to support them. That’s what I’m going to do my entire career,” he explained.
