Monterrey’s Rogelio Funes Mori earned himself the BenchWarmers stamp of approval for his savage celebration after scoring a 95th minute goal against Atletico San Luis.
Rogelio Funes Mori, not to be mistaken with the Villarreal centre-back who used to play for Everton, is one of the most esteemed marksmen in Liga MX, netting 15 goals in 28 appearances this campaign to date.
