Despite Club WC Final loss, Tigres leave historic mark

Tigres finally suffered its first Club World Cup loss in franchise history. And it came to the hands of German powerhouse Bayern Munich in the tournament final, by a score of 1-0. Despite looking at least a couple levels inferior than that of the German club and failing to create any sense of danger on Neuer’s goal, the Monterrey-based team left their mark on the tournament as well as the history books.

After a tough start to the tournament by falling behind to South Korean club Ulsan Hyundai, the situation was uncertain for Ferretti and his pupils, as they knew how disappointing a one-and-done would be after how hard they fought to get there.
