And the one that I missed, what I can recall is time went by slowly.
There was an element of them time wasting with the referee and then the goalkeepers, and it just made me think more and more and more.
This is essentially what Raul does with the goalkeeper.
So to have that type of concentration and be so effective at it and not miss, I mean, he's missed twice in his career, but in the Premier League at the highest of levels, it shows you just how...
Strong he is mentally and the mindset that he has going in where I'm going to beat you.
I am going to be better than you.
And I know there are penalty kicks, but if you've ever taken a penalty kick, you know how daunting and strange that feeling can be, how lonely it can be.
And he totally owns the spot.
I mean, this was his 200th goal in his career.
And there was a point in time in his career where I don't think there was anybody in this table who thought he'd get anywhere near to the level he was before that incident.
Let alone...
to where he is now.
We were just hoping he'd be okay, normal.
And here he is, second act, and people, regardless of where they play, regardless of who they cheer for, respect and love this guy.
It's a testament to who he is.
It's funny because as producer Beto whispered into your ear, I had the same kind of question asked out on Unka earlier today.
And my producer there whispered, how many penalty kicks are Mexico actually going to get at the World Cup?
Like, they've got to bank on Raul Jimenez's penalty kick to be...
effective for you to believe.
Like, that's going in for sure.
