The Mexican striker has officially established a new goal scoring record in his career after being sacked from Man United by Louis Van Gaal.

Leaving Manchester United was the best thing that could happen to Javier Hernández. The Mexican striker reached a personal record in his maiden season with Bayer Leverkusen after scoring a brace against Hannover 96 at BayArena. With his goals, Die Werkself will sleep in fourth place of the Bundesliga standings.

"Chicharito" showed once more he has learned from his past mistakes, after scoring his first goal today from the penalty spot. This is the second penalty he scores after miserably sending one to the stands during a UEFA Champions League qualifier match earlier this season.

Later on, the Mexican striker capped a good performance with a good dribble and a left-footed strike for the game's final goal.

Hernández has scored 19 goals in his last 16 games, and the Mexican striker has already secured his best goal scoring tally playing in Europe, sending the ball into the back of the net 21 times this season. He is currently among the top five goal scorers in the Bundesliga this season behind Thomas Müller (14), Robert Lewandowski (17) and Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang (20).

Chicharito's fans reacted to this news with hilarious tweets. Here are some of them.

"When I get word about Chicharito scoring a brace"

"AMAZING: This is how BayArena fans support Chicharito. German fans love him! Mexican idol."
