With Atlético de San Luis leading Tigres 0-1 on Saturday night, they were poised to complete their second consecutive road upset (after defeating América 2-3). Despite the fact Tigres had mostly dominated through 70 minutes, they had nothing to show for it, other than a lucky Nahuel who could’ve been shown a red card for his antics on Jhon Murillo when he pulled his hair just before a corner kick.
However, a magnificent offensive display by the talented Tigres attack had other things in mind. After Carlos González nodded things up at 1 with a header, it all came down to Tigres’ main attacking piece: André-Pierre Gignac.
