Tigres throws Monterrey into their own home as they become the first finalists of the Closing Tournament of the Liga MX

The UANL Tigers prevailed over the Rayados de Monterrey with a score of 1-0 as visitors in the Sultana del Norte. Those directed by Robert Siboldi thus register their name as the first finalists of the Closing Tournament of Liga MX and expect a rival between América and Chivas.

Sebastián Córdova, a former América player, has been the unbalancing player of the university eleventh and was the one who opened the game at the home of Rayados who, after an impressive first round, are left with the frustration of even having been able to reach the end.

The game was highly contested worthy of a Clásico Regio, however in the end the difference was made by the university cast that knew how to knock down the great leader, remembering that the Rayados dominated the first part of the Mexican championship from end to end. < /p>

The goal came through Sebastián Córdova, who ended up being a figure of the series when he scored in the 79th minute, just a minute after having a ball disallowed goal for those led by the Uruguayan Siboldi. In this way Cordova signed his second goal in the series and gave the university team a pass to the grand finale.

Nahuel Guzmán had made a mistake at minute 15 that Héctor Moreno had taken advantage of sending the ball to save, however the VAR annulled the goal to silence the fans of rayados who were going to be left with the gito drowned in the 90s minutes plus the discount.

After a season of ups and downs, the Tigers became strong and left the “Steel Giant” on the road, now they have to wait for América or Chivas to the grand finale, so far the azulcrema have the advantage, but it is a Liguilla semifinal and also a Classic where anything can happen.
