Efrain Juarez broke the deadlock as Mexico opened their defence of the Gold Cup with a 5-0 win over El Salavador.
Despite the commanding scoreline it took Mexico until the 55th minute to break the deadlock.
After having shot from Giovani dos Santos’ cross blocked by goalkeeper Miguel Montes the rebound bounced off the Celtic midfielder’s shoulder and ended up in the back of the net!
Manchester United striker Chicharito went on to steal the headlines with a hat-trick with Juarez coming up with a unique description for his goal.
“It was circumstantial,” the midfielder laughed. “I think the celebration reflected the good atmosphere inside the stadium.
“On the field shows that although at one point was not playing well, the team was confident in the way that we were playing.”
Asked about interest from Real Zaragoza he replied: “Actually I do not know, my agent will handle it.”
On Thursday Mexico face Cuba before taking on Costa Rica on Sunday in their final group match.
