Thursday, August 8, 2024, Q2 Stadium, Austin, Texas. UANL Tigers They faced the Tuzos from Pachuca for the match corresponding to the round of 32 in the Leagues CUP 2024.
Both the team led by Veljko Paunovic and the team commanded by Guillermo Almada, came out onto the field carefully, with the intention, yes, of winning, but trying not to lose, because their fans would soon brand that as a resounding failure.
Pachuca’s Tuzos were intelligently handling the threads of the match, and yet it was Tigres UANL who found the winning goal, through Marcelo Flores on a pass from Argentine forward Nicolás Ibáñez. It should be noted that both players had just entered the field.
Marcelo Flores’ goal that qualified Tigres for the round of 16 in the Leagues CUP 2024:
Nicolás Ibáñez’s assist is half a goal for Marcelo Flores to arrive and push it in.
They invented a great goal: two players who always have to be starters.
COME ON GOLDEN BOY, DAMN IT!
