In a classy nod to his compatriots in Mexico, Javier Hernandez has dedicated his Saturday goal to those battling the effects of Tropical Storm Patricia.

The strongest landfalling hurricane on record, Patricia’s winds reached 200 mph in Mexico. The storm has since been downgraded to a tropical storm.
