International Friendly: Mexico 2 Nigeria 2

A brace from Manchester United star Javier Hernandez has seen 10-man Mexico claim a 2-2 draw with Nigeria in a friendly in Houston on Friday.

Hernandez gave Mexico the lead after 21 minutes at Reliant Stadium, but the match turned just before the half-hour mark when Pablo Barrera blocked a shot with his hand, seeing the referee send him off and point to the spot.

Brown Ideye made no mistake with the penalty, and Nigeria took the lead when John Ogu took a long-range shot that deflected off Gerardo Torrado and past Jose Corona with five minutes remaining in the first half.

Despite their numerical advantage, Nigeria could not find another goal after the break, and Mexico were able to level through that man Hernandez again.

With 20 minutes remaining, Chicharito met a Carlos Salcido cross at the near post and stabbed it past the goalkeeper, much to the delight of the pro-Mexico, 62,000-strong crowd.

The Manchester United striker moved into fifth on the all-time Mexico scoring list, with 32 international goals in 47 appearances.
