Monterrey and Tigres battled to a hard-fought scoreless tie yesterday night. After a great 1st half from both squads, they couldn’t keep up their intensity and the 2nd half featured a drop of form that concluded with the 0-0 draw between them. Tigres will now travel to Mexico City to face Pumas on Wednesday while Monterrey is headed to Guadalajara to face Chivas.
Both sides were without a key man for yesterday’s match (Monterrey - Rogelio Funes Mori, Tigres - Florian Thauvin). After a great combination play early, Rodrigo Aguirre got off a left-footed shot that went just wide.
