Luis Suárez scores v Mexico, Sporting target also nets (1-1) | OneFootball

Luis Suárez continues to enjoy an excellent run of form and scored again for Colombia. The Sporting striker started in the 1-1 draw against Mexico and opened the scoring after just nine minutes, extending the scoring streak he had been building while playing for the Lions.

The goal came from a move by Richard Ríos, a player loaned by Benfica to Al-Ittihad. The midfielder did well down the right and crossed into the box, where Suárez got in front of the defenders and headed the ball into the back of the net guarded by Raúl Rangel.

This was the seventh consecutive match in which the 28-year-old striker found the back of the net, following the run he had put together with Sporting. His goalscoring touch is still there, now also in the Colombia national team shirt, at a particularly positive moment for the player.

Mexico managed to equalise in the 62nd minute throughGilberto Mora, who is on the Lions' radar. The highly creative 17-year-old produced a fine individual move and prevented Colombia from leaving Baltimore with a win in the friendly played at M&T Bank Stadium.

The Colombia national team will now prepare for its upcoming warm-up matches against Paraguay and Peru. For Suárez, it was another goalscoring display, in a run that underlines the excellent form he has been in since winning back his place in Rui Borges' starting XI.
