Toluca midfielder Rubens Sambueza has admitted his side have taken an any-means-neccesary approach to defeat top clubs such as Tigres - even if that includes physical mischief to grind out a result.
The strategy paid off in a 3-1 win on Sunday - and it was actually Tigres, not Toluca, to go down to 10-men when Guido Pizarro was shown a second yellow for a clumsy stamp on the leg of an opponent. There were 26 fouls committed between the sides and a penalty awarded in the contest.
Sambueza and Co. are now top of Liga MX on goal differential through two matches, with a Friday night clash with Tijuana approaching.
