INGLEWOOD, Calif. — Raúl Jiménez scored his second goal on a penalty kick in the second minute of second-half stoppage time, and Mexico beat Panama 2-1 to win the CONCACAF Nations League tournament for the first time. Jiménez dominated the week at SoFi Stadium with four goals in Mexico's two matches. He scored on a header in the eighth minute of the final before cashing in on the penalty awarded when Panama defender José Córdoba touched the ball with his inexplicably outstretched arm while chasing after it in the 90th minute. Adalberto Carrasquilla scored on a penalty in first-half injury time for Panama.
