Key Highlights
- Cruz Azul came out with a strange lineup including leaving starters like Jose Paradela and Carlos Rodriguez on the bench.
- From outside the area, Omar Campos got off a left footed shot that forced Tigres’ goalkeeper, Nahuel Guzman, to make a save.
- Off a long ball attack, Angel Correa would get the ball and give a thru pass that Juan Brunetta would get to and then get off a left footed shot from close range that would go wide in a bad miss.
- While Cruz Azul was trying for that goal they needed but Tigres handled them well.
- A cross into the area was brilliantly back heeled back by Gignac, right to Juan Brunetta, who got off a right footed shot past Cruz Azul’s goalkeeper, Andres Gudiño to score and give Tigres the 1-0 lead.
