Two draws against good opponents might not look wonderful, but the quality of performances from Mexico will give Javier Aguirre plenty of hope ahead of the World Cup

Mexico have been forced to turn to old heads and backups ahead of a pair of crucial friendlies, and the results could be dire for a side with big expectations

The debate over who is the greatest player of all time usually begins and ends with Lionel Messi and Cristiano Ronaldo, but Fulham striker Raul Jimenez believes there is one specific department where he stands head and shoulders above the legendary duo. The Mexico international has established himself as one of the most reliable figures in world football from the penalty spot, and he isn’t afraid to let the world know about his clinical edge when the pressure is at its highest, also ranking himself above Harry Kane.

Tottenham boss Igor Tudor labelled Fulham star Raul Jimenez a "cheat" after seeing his side slump to their second London derby loss in the space of a week. Spurs followed up their 4-1 drubbing at the hands of Arsenal with a 2-1 defeat to Fulham at Craven Cottage on Sunday, and although Tudor acknowledged his players had underperformed again, he was also unhappy with the standard of refereeing.
