Vine: Chicharito scored a cracker last night… and then celebrated like an eejit

From the sublime to the ridiculous...

From the sublime to the ridiculous…

Javier Hernandez showed he had lost none of his goal-scoring instincts as he opened the scoring for Mexico last night in their 2-0 friendly win over fellow World Cup participants Honduras. Running on to a through ball, two touches to control and then BAAAAAAAAAAANG, a superb finish.

Wish we could say the same for his celebration though. We are not sure what that was all about. It reminded us of our mammy when she won a fiver on a scratch card. The striker, currently on loan at Real Madrid from parent club Manchester United, has had a rough time with the international team and started last night for the first time in a few games.

Maybe he had forgotten how to celebrate properly? Yeah, that’s probably it.​
