In just a matter of minutes, Vinicius Junior experienced the two extremes of football in Castilla's match against Celta Vigo B, as he scored a stunning freekick to level the score before then being shown a second yellow card for diving.
In a quiet first half where he struggled to make a real impact, Vinicius was booked for confronting an opponent after being fouled on a number of occasions.
In the second half, all you could hear was his name as he became more involved in the match, creating a string of chances for Castilla.
Then came the moment of magic as the Brazilian equalised with a beautifully struck freekick into the top corner, which saved a point for Santiago Solari's side and maintained their unbeaten run.
Anyone who followed his development in Flamengo knows that set pieces were never a strength of his, but he has already scored two in magnificent style this season for Castilla.
Unfortunately for the 18-year-old, he was shown a second yellow card in the 85th minute after being accused of diving by the referee.
This means he will be banned for at least one game - which will be the Clasico - despite being sent off in another league.
