Watch: Mexico's Raul Jimenez scores two for Benfica in Champions League
Javier "Chicharito" Hernandez isn't the only Mexican international forward finding scoring success in the Champions League.
El Tri's Raul Jimenez scored twice for Benfica Wednesday, bringing the Portuguese powerhouse back from a 2-0 deficit and salvaging a 2-2 draw with Kazakhstan's upstart Astana. Looking for a game to jump-start his season, Jimenez, who had not scored for Benfica since late August, got on the end of a Jonas cross to head Benfica onto the board at the end of the first half.
Jimenez pulled Benfica level in the 72nd minute, dragging his leg back in the box to make enough contact to redirect a cross from Andre Almeida into the net.
Chicharito, who has scored four goals for Bayer Leverkusen in the Champions League group stage, took note:
