San Pedro del Pinatar, Apr 26 (EFE) friendly in which they beat Japan 4-3 at the Pinatar Arena complex in Murcia.
José Lana, the category coach, opted not to have the young Madrid attacker, 13 years old – he will turn 14 on September 16 – and cited for the first time by the Royal Spanish Football Federation (RFEF).
Enzo, born in Madrid, was summoned to Spain when he could also have chosen Brazil, his father’s country and in whose selection the former Madrid left-back is considered a footballer of the era.
The young attacker, who currently belongs to Real Madrid’s infantil A squad and joined the club’s bases in 2017 as a youngster, has some discomfort that made him train on the sidelines and exercise in the gym during the Spanish team’s stay in the Murcian town of San Pedro del Pinatar.
It is possible that his debut with the national sub-15s will take place on Friday in another friendly against the United States or on Sunday against England, both commitments to be played equally at Pinatar Arena.
In this Wednesday’s clash, full of alternatives, Spain was able to react to Sakaguchi Yuki’s early goal for Japan, and came to half-time winning 3-1 with goals from Fútbol Club Barcelona players Pedro Fernández and Antonio Fernández and that of Madrid player Juan Vacas.
However, in the second half Hirata Reiji’s men responded, establishing the 3-3 that seemed to be final with goals from Hirooka Eita and Kasai Mibuki.
A very well finished counterattack by Igor Venancio Oyono, Villarreal Club de Fútbol striker, with four minutes remaining gave the Spanish victory with Enzo Vieira, who didn’t even warm up, watching him from the bench.
