A Nicolas Sanchez header just before halftime gave Monterrey a leg up ahead of next week's decider at the Estadio BBVA Bancomer
Too often, it seems like those comparing a sporting event to a heavyweight title fight have never seen a boxing match of any sort.
Yet, if not two sluggers going at it in the ring, what should we compare the first leg of the Concacaf Champions League final to? An arching header from a corner kick just before the break was the difference, with Monterrey taking the 1-0 advantage into next week's second leg thanks to Nicolas Sanchez.
