Estevâo Willian, also known by his nickname “Messinho,” has shined at Brazil’s second FIFA U17 World Cup Match.
The rival was New Caledonia, by far the weakest team in the group, but it was reassuring for Brazil to win in resounding fashion: 9-0.
In the first matchday, Messinho was a substitute and his side let slip a 2-0 lead to eventually lose 2-3 to Iran.
Against New Caledonia, he was a starter and scored a goal and set up three more before being taken off before the hour mark.
This could signal that coach Phelipe Leal is thinking of using him as a starter once again in a crucial match against England.
