Giovani dos Santos was recently called up to the Mexican National Team for their international friendlies against New Zealand and Panama. The LA Galaxy forward started, captained, and even scored in his international return. It had been over a year since Gio played for El Tri.
Dos Santos played an all-around great match and left a footprint on the game. His impact was clearly felt from the opening whistle til the end of the match. He got the start in the number 10 role for Mexico as n attacking midfielder.
GdS was the lone player from Major League Soccer to start in the match as New Zealand and Portland Timbers’ goalkeeper, Jake Gleeson, was on the bench for his side.
