Even the best attackers would have been proud of the left-back's goal.

Being a technically-gifted defender, Marcelo knows a thing or two about causing havoc when helping out in the attack. On Friday, Japan witnessed this first hand by conceding a thunderous goal from the Real Madrid defender.

The Asian giants locked horns with the Selecao in a friendly for the ongoing international break. It didn’t take long for the five-time World Cup winners to open the goalscoring.

After only 10 minutes, Tite’s side was already in the lead courtesy of a Neymar penalty. Shortly later, Brazil was awarded a penalty which the PSG failed to convert. 

Failure to clear the ball from the subsequent corner kick saw the ball fall to Marcelo right outside the penalty box. What came next was a thunderous, unforgettable goal from the full-back. Watch the strike in the video below.
