The free acquisition of Andre-Pierre Gignac to Tigres UANL was one of the most jaw-dropping deals over the summer, but the Frenchman is also capable of shocking on the pitch.
The former Marseille forward has already plundered 12 goals in 16 starts for his new club this campaign, including this fine strike against Pachuca, and has now scored the best of the bunch with a fantastic overhead kick in the quarterfinals of Liga MX's Apertura stage.
His effort helped overcome Chiapas by a 2-1 scoreline, with the pair renewing their rivalry in the second leg on Saturday.
