Chicharito filming for the Coke advert at the Manchester Airport
You will soon see the little pea in a Coke advert. Javier Hernandez, the famous Mexican who landed up at Manchester United from Guadalajara (Mexico) this summer is ready to take his fame to the next level by appearing on TV during adverts as well!
The advert which was supposed to be filmed outside took place inside the Manchester Airport as the weather threatened the filming of a Coke commercial and the crew had to improvise to get the desired look.
Javier Hernandez was seen laughing and joking between takes with the crew and seemed to be comfortable in front of the cameras.
"There was a lot of activity and plenty of extras were involved in the filming but the main attraction was Chicharito. He spent most of the day here and there was a real buzz about the place.” Hernandez was rushed to the airport (where the commercial was being filmed) after filming scenes earlier in the day at Broughton Park rugby ground."
Chicarito’s Mexican side defeated Bosnia-Herzegovina 2-0 in the international friendly played yesterday. Our “little-pea” was easily the best player on the field, despite missing a penalty.
Hernandez was amongst the 5 players whom the new coach, Manuel de la Torra, decided to pick after the world cup debacle under previous coach. The 50,000 odd fans were delighted with the football and also the fact that they were allowed to carry their Vuvuzelas with them.
In the 49th minute, Mexico were awarded a penalty. Hernandez took the penalty, which the Bosnian goalkeeper managed to keep out. The ball bounced out, though, and bounced back over the goal line. While it appeared defender Miralem Pjanic deflected the ball into his own goal, Hernandez was credited with the goal. Mexico’s second goal was similar to Rooney’s first goal against Villa in which VDS provided the assist. Here, Mexico goalkeeper, Jesus Corona’s long ball took a bounce over the Bosnian defenders and Pacheco won the race to the ball and scored.
After the match, Hernandez said, “The most important thing is the victory. I didn't know if it was my goal or if it was an own goal, but I celebrated with my teammates and laughed because of the circumstance that arose. Scoring is always beautiful but it's better to win. It does you no good if you score three goals and you don't win."
The lad has scored 2 goals for Manchester United this season exluding the three he scored in Manchester United's Pre-Season North American and Ireland tour. This post presents a little biography, his videos, pictures of the goals he has scored with Manchester United. Look out for his review done by TRDS at the bottom.
The latest addition to the Manchester United squad, Javier Hernandez, who is also known as "Chicharito" and is so proud of it that he has got it inscribed behind his t-shirt instead of Hernandez.
Who had heard of his name until United announced on 8th of April, 2010 that they've aquired him but the deal was subjected to a work permit acceptance? I guess not many, apart from Mexican Manchester United fans!
Then came along the World Cup in which the Mexican scored 2 goals. One came against a 2-0 victory against France and a massive 3-1 defeat to Argentina.
FIFA's statistical analysis team observed Chicharito to be the fastest player in the world cup with a top speed of 32.15 Km/hr
For Javier Hernandez there could have possibly been no better start to his career at Manchester United than to score on his debut. The goal came against MLS All-Stars in Houston, Texas. Fletcher set it up for him.
It was a close call whether or not Chicharito was off-side, but it was an impressive and a confident finish. Thanks to Darren Fletcher for his killer long pass.
Chicharito's debut goal against MLS All-stars 5-2. Thanks to Fletcher
In his 2nd pre-season game, this time against his old club - Chivas Guadalajara, he scored again! But this time against Manchester United. Yes, he played the first half with his old club as a farewell and changed into the Red Devil gear at the half time. He failed to stop his ex-club win the game. Chivas 3-2 Manchester United. Have a look at the lovely firing goal from the Mexicon which even the Polish United goalie - Tomasz Kuszczak could not save!
Chicharito then scored his 3rd pre-season goal in his 3rd pre-season appearance. This goal came against League of Ireland XI against Manchester United which saw the inaugral of the marvellous AVIVA stadium in Dublin. Manchester United 7-2 League of Ireland XI
Chicharito's face was enough to score a goal against Chelsea.
Chicharito's most important goal for Manchester United came against Valencia C.F in the 2nd Champions League group game. Manchester United registered a win in Spain for the first time in 8.5 years thanks to "Chicharito" Javier Hernandez's cameo appearance.
JAVIER HERNANDEZ REVIEWED:
The young lad displays a great deal of talent. He is undoubtedly one of the brightest young footballers around. Having said that, a transfer fee of £6m means that Chicharito is definitely a bargain for Manchester United already.

Chicharito is a two footed accurate finishing machine. He doesn't mind scoring from his face either, like he did against Chelsea in the Community Shield game which United won 3-1 thanks to a late goal from Chicharito which secured a hard fought victory for the Red Devils.
The guy is too skillful for his age. He is ravaging quick, knows how to override the offside trap. Chicharito is England's young Michael Owen one can arguably say. He is the most productive around the penalty area. Interesting enough! Chicharito was declared as the "fastest runner" by FIFA's Stats Analyst team at the world cup 2010 with a top running speed of 32.15 Km/hr. Now this is a huge plus point for a striker - the ability to make quick runs and making use of long balls fired by the midfield, typically how Darren Fletcher set him up during the MLS All-Stars game in Houston. (United won 5-2, totally brutalised the american squad!)
One can proudly say that Chicharito owns pace and skills that not many Premier League players posses. The Mexican striker has had a much better start to his Manchester United career.
I must conclude by saying that Chicharito has shown a great promise for both Manchester United and the future of Mexico. May he score loads of goals for Manchester United this season. Red Devils seriously need it from this player - as Rooney can no more be relied upon for his awesome away form (that was a joke).
Thanks for reading, hope Chicharito becomes the Top scorer of the season for United!
