I asked myself that inside, the reality is that I feel more Mexican than Argentine, I arrived when I was two years old and my whole life was in Mexico, I don’t remember when I lived in Argentina and that’s why it was the decision to go with Mexico.” , commented ‘Chaquito’in an interview on the program ‘Hugo Sánchez Presents’ by Star +.

Giménez knew he was going to score the title goal in the Gold Cup
Santiago Gimenez He had five minutes of the Gold Cup final, enough to score the goal that gave the title to the Mexican team. ‘Chaquito’ reveals that he “had already visualized it.”
“In that Gold Cup it wasn’t my turn to start, while we were outside we talked, I visualized myself scoring the goal. I knew I was going to score the winning goal, time passed and I didn’t get involved, it seemed like I was starting to get angry, to feel that hunger. I have five minutes, it doesn’t matter if it’s 90, but I give my best, I go one-on-one, the long shot, it’s not enough for me and I get the goal. I was prepared, not arrogant for being on the bench and I am grateful that he gave me that goal,” commented Santiago Giménez.
