For all the anxious uncertainty of what sort of physical shape Club America will show up in for this match, the thing about finals is that you still need to win them. After a long trip to Japan for the Club World Cup, las Aguilas play host to Tigres in the first leg of the Liga MX final.
When the series kicks off on Thursday, Club America will be looking for their 13th league title. If there is one team that knows how to win trophies it is las Aguilas.
In that sense, the pressure is on Tigres to put up a good first-leg performance.
