Gradually, coach Miguel Herrera begins to trace his own history at Tigres. This time, the ‘Piojo’ has fulfilled his first objective in front of the university students by being the best offense of the tournament.
Upon his arrival at the team, the helmsman mentioned in a press conference ‘we are going to score a shitload of goals’. And he was not wrong, since Tigres got the first place in this area with 26 annotations, above Santos Laguna and Toluca, each with 23 and 22, respectively.
Now, one of the maxims of ‘Piojo’ is to make a good league so that in this way they increase the chances of the championship.
Last Tuesday, the player Rafael Sobis decided to hang up his boots after just over 17 years as a professional footballer.
The Tigres team did not forget him and through a publication through their Twitter account they wished the Brazilian success.
‘Always on our minds, Rafita. Success in whatever comes’, they wrote in their official account.
It should be noted that Sobis joined the ‘U’ team in 2015, and after only one season in the squad he left for Cruzeiro. The steering wheel was key to obtaining the championship that same year.
Despite the fact that there is still one more week for Tigres to debut at the Fiesta Grande of this contest, the good news has not been long in coming.
On this occasion it was reported about the recovery of defender Diego Reyes and Frenchman Florian Thauvin, who were in the dry dock.
Although this Saturday Tigres will have a friendly match against Venados so as not to lose shape, it is most likely that the ‘Piojo’ will give them rest so that they are ready and avoid relapses.
Much has been said that this will be the last tournament of the experienced player Jesús Dueñas. However, the situation could take a turn in the coming days, as the first reports point to his continuity at the club.
According to information from TUDN, The Mexican could have his last chance and the board is already analyzing the possible renewal of the player, who ends his contract in December.
This source indicates that the intention of the club in extending his stay is in gratitude for the time he has been in the team.
