The first leg of the Liga MX final has come and gone and the results were surprising to say the least. Chivas went into el Volcan and managed a 2-2 draw when everyone had counted them out. If you were to look purely at the stat line, this comes across as a great result for Chivas. A look deeper shows that this is a very deceptive score line heading into Sunday night’s game in Estadio Chivas.
Chivas had a 2-0 lead up until the 83rd minute and then Gignac happened. In a matter of minutes, the Frenchmen put the whole city of Monterrey on his back and brought Tigres back with a brace that put Chivas on notice heading into the second leg.
