Why Did Giménez Choose Not to Celebrate His Goal?

Last Updated on

Santiago Gimenez of AC Milan gestures at the end of the Coppa Italia quarter final football match.

In a stunning start, Santiago Giménez netted a goal within the first minute against his former club, Feyenoord. Despite the excitement, he chose not to celebrate, later expressing high praise for the Rotterdam team. Even more striking, after the final whistle, the Mexican forward visited the locker room to greet his old teammates.

Assistant coach John de Wolf shared this touching moment on Radio 538. “You know what’s remarkable about Giménez? We saw him in the dressing room after the match. He brought an AC Milan shirt for all the staff and players. That really shows his class,” said De Wolf.

“He wished us the best in the upcoming rounds, and so on. That’s how we know Santi. He’s not just an exceptional athlete but also a great person. These are the precious moments that happen away from the cameras.”

“I am very sad that we didn’t make it to the next round. Congratulations to Feyenoord, and I hope they go far,” Giménez said on Ziggo Sport.
