Raúl Jiménez scores again in Premier League

LONDON, ENGLAND – Fulham’s risky gamble in signing Raúl Jiménez is paying off, as the Mexican striker scored his third goal of the week in a 5-0 win over West Ham on Sunday.

Jimenez appeared once again as a starter and responded to the confidence, not only scoring once again, but being very important in the offensive game of his team.

Barely 22 minutes into the match, Jiménez, with two West Ham players marking him, managed to open up space to beat the defenders in the air and with a powerful header beat goalkeeper Fabiánski.

The goal is the third in a week, in which he also scored a brace last Wednesday against Notttingham Forest in the Premiere League.

Also scoring in Sunday’s rout were Willian in the 31st, Adarabioyo in the 40th, Wilson in the 60th and Carlos Vinicius in the 88th to complete the 5-0 thrashing in the match.

With the victory, Fulham moved up to tenth place after reaching 21 points at the end of the match and moved just three points behind West Ham.

Edson Álvarez, who is also Mexican, was not called up due to an illness of which no further details have been disclosed.

According to the Transfermarkt portal, the value of Raul Jimenez after this streak is already 6 million Euros, which exceeds the minimum cap he had reached in recent months since his arrival in Europe.

Fulham’s next match will be on Saturday against Newcastle, in which Jimenez will try to keep up the scoring streak.
