Sometimes you just know going into a match that it’s going to be a classic, and tonight’s match between first place Tijuana and third place Tigres did not disappoint. This was a brawl between two of Liga MX’s best teams that often mixed the frenetic back and forth of basketball with the physicality and extra-curricular jostling of ice hockey.
Tigres’ goalkeeper Nahuel Guzmán put on a display tonight, making nine saves to earn a clean sheet. Lucas Zelarayán scored the game’s only goal off of a great cutback pass from Ismael Sosa in the 14th minute.
