2017 Apertura Liguilla - Tigres 2, Xolos 0: Highlights and box score

Tigres were the team to beat coming into the Liguilla. So far they’re still unbeaten, as two good goals and a couple of injuries sunk Tijuana.

After a war of words with Xolos coach Miguel Herrera leading up to the match, Tuca Ferretti embraced his rival before the match.

In the 10th minute, Andre-Pierre Gignac made a run into the box. Gibran Lajud came too far off of his line, and Juan Carlos Valenzuela did a great job of defending Gignac one-on-one until Lajud could recover.

Tijuana looked compact in defense, making sure that they had numbers back at all times.
