The Tigres repeat the dose to Nashville SC 1-0 and advance to the final of Concachampions
With a goal from Argentine Juan Brunetta, the Tigres of UANL, beat Nashville SC 1-0 in a very brave duel in the Concachampions
The UANL Tigres left the spectacularity aside and bet on football pragmatism to launch a e style that allowed them to repeat the dose to Nashville SC 1-0 and in this way advance to the final of Concachampions in their history.
After last week's victory in Tennessee, they didn't expect a radical change in their playing style and with this idea they went to the University field pa ra achieve the close victory. It's true that it wasn't easy, because the goal that ensured the match was given until minute 66 by the Argentinian Juan Brunetta.
It's true that the felines' style wasn't the best in many games in front of 41, 615 spectators gathered at the Volcano, very far from the duel they fought against Chivas or against Mazatlán, but it was enough to leave the North American team on the path.
There were also new developments, such as the lineup that Guido Pizarro used when starting Marcelo Flores instead of Diego Lainez, while Nashville had a hot royal afternoon of almost 40 degrees. bad past, because Patrick Yazbek injured his right leg in the warmup, having to leave the court with support so that he didn't support his foot when walking. JB Callaghan had to be replaced by Bryan Acosta.
Tigres also had to make movements in their box before the 20 minute with Fernando Gorrarián's injury to be relieved by Juan Pablo Vigón, who didn't affect the functioning of the team in anything and even made it stronger on the field of play.
The rest of the first half was very contested, with the visitors threatening corner kicks, while the cats didn't make plays, they greatly resented Gorriarán's departure, so they went to the break without goals.
For the second part, the felines were a little further forward and achieved the victory goal 1-0 in a great play on the left side of Ángel Correa, lim tweeting the area and leaving a chocolate for Brunetta so that he would shoot and give peace of mind to the felines and the course towards the grand final of the Concachampions.
Two finals in less than five months, not bad for a team led by a coach with barely a year of experience, but who has been able to convince and commit his players for what they are living today by Guido Pizarro.
