The best version of Santiago Giménez is back. This Sunday, in the Dutch league, the Mexican scored a double in Feyenoord’s 5-1 win over Zwolle.
Little boy He has regained the confidence that he lost at times in the final stretch of last season and that ended up becoming more pronounced in the Copa América.
The holiday period, however, has given Giménez clarity again. Today, his forcefulness is the same that has put him in the sights of the best clubs in the world.
That version seems to have returned since a couple of weeks ago, when Santi also managed to score a couple of goals in the Dutch Super Cup.
Although the previous date He went scoreless at the start of the season, but this weekend, Giménez was accurate in each of the opportunities that were presented to him.
Although the tricolor team participated and tried to open the door in the first half, the reward came in the entire game.
New coach Brian Priske was right to keep him on the pitch. After this decision, Santiago responded to the confidence that the Dane placed in him.
Thus, after a poor exit by the local goalkeeper and a ball theft by Gjivai Zechiel, the Cruz Azul youth player, alone in front of the goal, scored the first goal with a right-footed shot (68′) that allowed Rotterdam to extend their lead to 4-0.
Two minutes later, Santi reappeared in the area with the same determination.
This time, with a through ball into space, Chaquito, unmarked, managed to get in front and then score with his left foot to seal Feyenoord’s first win of the season.
Igor Paixao, Calvin Stengs and David Hancko were the other scorers.
