Scoring the dramatic last-minute winner against Liverpool at the start of October seems to have unlocked something in young Est\u00eav\u00e3o, who got his name on the scoresheet once again this weekend, in a friendly for Brazil against Senegal.<\/p>\n
The 18-year-old now has seven goals in his last eleven appearances for club and country, and has scored in each of his five starts during that span (twice for Brazil, three times for Chelsea).<\/p>\n
Saturday\u2019s match against Senegal, which Brazil would go on to win 2-0, was played at the Emirates Stadium in London: let\u2019s hope Est\u00eav\u00e3o can repeat his goalscoring antics when we visit in a couple weeks to play the venue\u2019s usual tenants, Arsenal. His performance today earned a(nother) rave review from Brazil manager Carlo Ancelotti.<\/p>\n
\u201cEst\u00eav\u00e3o plays more openly on the right [wing]; he has incredible talent. For me, it\u2019s a surprise that someone so young has this kind of talent. He\u2019s very accurate in his finishing, very forceful. With him, Brazil has a secure future.\u201d<\/p>\n
