💎 Estêvão matches Pelé and makes his mark in Brazil's history 🇧🇷 | OneFootball

The Brazilian National Team defeated Chile 3-0 at the Maracanã this Thursday (4th), with goals from Estêvão, Lucas Paquetá, and Bruno Guimarães.

Scoring the goal that "opened the gates" for the canary victory, Estêvão etched his name in the history of the National Team.

This is because the Palmeiras gem, now at Chelsea, at 18 years and 4 months old, with his first goal for the National Team, became the youngest player since Pelé to score for Brazil in "non-friendly" matches.

In 1958, the King of Football was 17 years and 4 months old when he scored in the final against Sweden (5-2, two goals by Pelé, two more by Vavá, and one by Zagallo), securing Brazil's first world title.

That's right: since Pelé, no one so young had done this for the National Team.

After standing out at Palmeiras and catching Chelsea's attention, Estêvão is starting to make his mark with the yellow jersey. A rare talent with a promising future.

Are we witnessing the birth of another star?
