Mexico strikes first against the US after a HUGE free kick goal from Raúl Jiménez 🇲🇽
– Mittwoch, 16. Oktober 2024

After a serious head injury back in 2020 that called into question the entirety of his career, Jiménez has done well to bounce back at club and international level since his return.

His goal tonight is the 35th of his time with the national team, with some now quipping that Feyenoord Rotterdam hitman Santiago Giménez may have been displaced on the spot.
