Benfica and Mexico international striker Raul Jimenez hit the post with a long-range strike. Benfica are lucky he did.

Fortune favors the bold. Just ask Raul Jimenez.

The mexican international striker's near-wonderstrike hit the post and was rebounded in by Nico Gaitan, sending Benfica through to the Champions league quarterfinals and knocking Zenit St. Petersburg out of the competition.

God, what a goal that would have been, though.
