Things are still not looking good in Mexico’s attack on the Eredivise Feyenoord forward Santiago Gimenez, who completed his eleventh game without scoring a goal in the 1-0 victory over Jamaica, which increases the pressure on his performance in the national team that participates in the Copa América 2024.
Giménez, despite his effort and desire to try to break his bad streak to help the Mexican team, He could only count on one clear scoring opportunity to end up relieved by Guillermo Martínez around the 68th minute in the victory over the Jamaicans.
The truth is that after the game against the Caribbean at the start of the 2024 Copa América, Giménez went 11 games in a row without being able to score with the Tricolor, lor which one has it against the wall and with the demands on the surface for one of the greatest exponents of the Mexican team
In the analysis of the Feyenoord striker’s performance, according to SofaScore data, Giménez made 16 touches of the ball, with nine passes, but only six were successful and eight losses of the ball, while at the top he was only able to win the ball twice with the tall Jamaican defenses.
Santiago Giménez scored his last goal with Mexico in the 2023 Gold Cup final when in the final minute he scored a great score to give the Aztec team the title over Panama and since that moment he has accumulated 463 minutes without being able to score a new score with the green shirt of the Mexican national team.
