Real Madrid fans have had plenty to cheer about recently, and the excitement reached new heights following Tuesday night’s Champions League victory against Stuttgart. But it wasn’t just Endrick Felipe’s dazzling performance that got everyone talking—Antonio Rudiger also made headlines with a comedic twist.
After Endrick, the 18-year-old Brazilian sensation scored his first Champions League goal for Real Madrid, he was the star of the post-match interview. The young forward had already made headlines by breaking a long-standing record set by club legend Raul, scoring at just 18 years and 58 days—smashing Raul’s previous record of 18 years and 113 days. But the night’s entertainment was far from over.
As Endrick spoke about his achievement and his idol Bobby Charlton—who, let’s just say, wasn’t everyone’s favorite in Madrid—Rudiger decided to join the fun.
In a moment captured by El Chiringuito TV, Rudiger burst into the frame, shouting “Boooobby!” before sauntering off with a cheeky grin. The playful interruption brought a burst of laughter, adding a memorable touch to the young player’s night.

The big night for Endrick & Rudiger's dedication for Madrid
On the pitch, Endrick was the hero of the evening. After Dani Carvajal set him up with a precise pass, Endrick showcased his skill with a stunning long-range shot that flew past Alexander Nubel, sealing a 3-1 win for Real Madrid.
His performance wasn’t the only highlight; Rudiger also got in on the action by scoring a header from a Luka Modric corner, adding to the team’s tally after Kylian Mbappe had opened the scoring.
During the post-match interview Rudiger said, “Even if I have to play for Real Madrid with one leg, I will!”.
