The international title drought is no longer. Tuca Ferretti’s Tigres have finally broken their curse and are headed to their first ever FIFA Club World Cup thanks to their 2-1 comeback victory last night against LAFC, despite it having been a hard fought game that included its fair share of referee mishaps in which the underdogs even took the lead with half an hour to go. But in the end, Gignac and Tigres were just too much for the California-based club.
So, what does this mean for the CONCACAF tournament? For starters, it tells us that a Mexican club has won the tournament for a whopping 15th time in a row.
