In the latest chapter of his meteoric rise, Brazilian defender Alex Telles has shown his versatility and strength as he broke through to score the winning goal for Santos FC against Palmeiras on Sunday.
The match was one of the most anticipated games of the season, with both teams fighting hard to secure their first victory of the campaign. However, it was Telles who stole the show, scoring a stunning header from outside the box that gave Santos the lead in the 75th minute.
The goal came after a series of defensive errors by Palmeiras,Campeonato Brasileiro Action which left Santos open for a counter-attack. Telles took advantage of the space between the two defences and unleashed a powerful shot that sailed into the top corner of the net.
It was a well-deserved win for Santos, who have struggled to find their form this season. The victory also marked a significant milestone for Telles, who has been a key player for Santos over the past few years.
Telles' performance is just another example of how versatile and adaptable he can be. He has already established himself as one of the best defenders in Brazil, but his recent performances suggest that he could be even better when given the opportunity.
As Santos continue to fight for a spot in the Copa Libertadores, Telles will undoubtedly be at the heart of their defense. His goal against Palmeiras was just the beginning of what could be a great season for him and Santos.
