Landon Donovan makes first Liga MX start, but Tigres dominate Leon

Landon Donovan made his first Liga MX start Saturday, though it wasn't a dream full debut for the United States legend.

Donovan played an hour for Leon but wasn't able to make the difference he would've hoped, with the score sitting at 4-0 in favor of Tigres when he left the match.

While a frustrating result, the 61 minutes he played in El Volcan were more than his previous minute total combined since he came out of retirement for a second time to join La Fiera. Entering the weekend, Donovan had made four appearance for Gustavo Diaz's side, totaling 36 minutes as a whole.
