Real Madrid forward Endrick showed a touch of class when it came to dealing with disgusting bullying from Barcelona man Ronald Araujo in Uruguay’s win over Brazil.
From the get-go, the Uruguayan centre-back seemed determined to hurt Endrick. He fouled him a couple of times in the early part of the game and even shoved him down on the ground in the 17th minute.
This caused Araujo’s own Barcelona teammate Raphinha to come to Endrick’s aid and shove the centre-back down to the ground!
The Uruguayan centre-back got a dose of karma and picked up a muscle injury around the 30th minute mark, ending his game.
Despite the poor behavior from the Barca man early on, Endrick was classy enough to check up on the defender as he was being treated.
The Brazilian forward also gave him a few friendly words as Araujo limped off the field and was replaced by Atletico Madrid man Jose Gimenez.
Brazil had a night to forget as the suffered a loss in the penalty shootout, with Fede Valverde’s side moving onto the semifinal.
