On Tuesday, Brazil's First National Team made a strong comeback in their game against Spain to hold their game with a 3-3 draw.

Brazil's Lucas Paqueta scored a penalty in the added time to hit the equalizer for the Samba Dancers with Spain in their friendly at the Santiago Bernabeu stadium on Tuesday.

The hosts dominated the game in the early minutes, giving space for Lamine Yamal and Nico Williams to reveal their powers.

Yamal gave a penalty in the 12th minute for Spain and it was scored by the team's Captain Rodri. 

In the 36th minute, Dani Olmo scored the second for the Matadors to be in front.

Brazil's Rodrygo scored the first for the Samba to reduce the deficit before the break.

A few minutes after the break, Brazil's Endrick scored for the Samba to bring the game to the draw once again.

In the 86th minute, the Matadors were granted a penalty which was scored by Rodri.

In the added time, Paqueta saved the Samba from the defeat by hitting the equalizer.

Rodri also scored 

Spain captain Rodri stroked home from the spot to put the hosts in front and Dani Olmo extended their lead in the 36th minute, nutmegging two Brazilian defenders before firing into the top corner.

However, Rodrygo reduced the deficit before the break after a mistake by goalkeeper Unai Simon and teenager Endrick came off the bench to equalise from a corner four minutes into the second half.

It was reported that the Santiago Bernabéu stadium, which is Real Madrid's venue, witnessed the biggest crowds since the departure of Cristiano Ronaldo (CR7)

The match was held under the slogan "One skin." The game is dedicated to fight against racism and violence in football.
