Raul Jimenez was one of the protagonists of the exciting game between Everton and Wolves, in the third week of the Premier League. The Mexican bagged the second equaliser for Wolves from a header and he hurt his face for it, although the joy was short-lived when Richarlison made it 3-2 to Everton.

Football gives small doses of joy, at times, accompanied by a painful action and sometimes, even the glory is so temporary that you don't even realise it happened.

Something similar happened to Raul Jimenez, who did not fail in his aim for goal. He got the second equaliser in the game against Everton, a duel similar to a roller coaster, and took a hard blow to the face at the same time.

From a throw-in, Boly hit the far post and the Mexican striker managed to send the ball to the bottom of the net, but not before taking an involuntary kick from former Barcelona player Digne. This made it 2-2 with a quarter of an hour left of the game.

Five minutes later, Wolves were beaten in the air, again, by Richarlison, who scored the first goal. He jumped and headed the ball straight into the net. Joy was temporary for Wolves again in football.
