Just when the Mexican national team needs goals, Santiago Jimenez raises his hand to position himself as a solid candidate to lead El Tri.. The “Kid” has enough merit to take this position. Former striker Cruz Azul very close to setting a new European record and surpassing Chicharito’s amazing records.
Bebote scored their 13th goal for Feyenoord of the Netherlands. Former striker Cruz Azula maintains a high performance despite only having a few minutes on the pitch. Jiménez scored 13 goals and provided 3 assists in 1494 minutes on the field. (just over 16 complete games).
Jimenez could beat Javier Hernandez’s record
In the 2010-2011 season Javier Hernandez managed to score 20 goals in his first campaign in Europe. With this record, Chicharito equaled 20 goals scored by Luis Garcia for Atlético Madrid in 1992-1993.
More than 30 years have passed and Hernandez and Garcia’s record was unbeatable. But Santiago Jimenez has great chances to get closer to 20 goals, especially considering an impeccable quota of goals scored in relation to the minutes of the game.
9 more days to Eredivisie, not to mention that Feyenoord is still alive in European competition.
