Tigres UANL clinched the Liga MX final with a penalty-shootout win over Pumas UNAM, and Andre-Pierre Gignac was ecstatic with the victory.
Andre-Pierre Gignac has described the "incredible joy" of winning the Liga MX title at the end of his first season with Tigres UANL.
Tigres took a commanding 3-0 first-leg lead into Sunday's clash with Pumas UNAM but three goals from the home side - including an 87th-minute strike from Silvio Torales - forced the final into an unlikely extra-time showdown.
Gignac restored the aggregate lead in the 103rd minute and was denied a clinching second goal by Alejandro Palacios' fine save, before Gerard Alcoba made it 4-4 and forced a penalty shootout.
