The semester of terror that Tigres had this 2024

The activity concluded for Tigers in this first half of 2024 and it can already be concluded that the team Robert Dante Siboldi closed with the feeling of having had a semester to forget, especially due to the double failure in Liga MX and Concacaf.

And it is not only about not having won either of the two trophies, but also that they were very far from the finals and were eliminated by a team from Major League Soccer (MLS) and by his hated rival, the Rayados de Monterrey.

But if this were not enough, Siboldi He had to work with constant injuries practically the entire tournament, to which was added the historic sanction to Nahuel Guzmanwho lost his mind and began to point a laser beam at his colleague, Esteban Andrada, in the Royal Classic of the regular season.

To begin with, the campaign of the UANL Tigers in it Closing 2024 was marked by irregularity. They finished in sixth position, with 31 points, the product of nine victories, but also four draws and four defeats, including two tough defeats against America (2-0) and Pachuca (0-3).

Unfortunately for the felines, in the league it was their turn Rayados de Monterreywho arrived with some doubts in the operation, but that mattered little in the first leg in the University Volcanowhere Siboldi He was overwhelmed and saw his team fall 1-2.

As if this were not enough, the great pillar of these Tigers, Nahuel Guzmanwas suspended this semester and will miss half of the next tournament due to his childish attitude in the Clásico Regio of the regular season, ending his participation this semester in a horrible way.

The situation worsened in Concachampionswhere they were the first Monterrey team to succumb to Columbus Crewthe MLS champion team that won the penalty shootout in the Volcano.

Both eliminations of Tigersboth in Concacaf like in Liga MXoccurred in the Quarterfinals, so they were very far from being able to even dream of this semester’s titles.

As another additive, the sick leave due to injury for Tigers this 2024 They were a constant that prevented Siboldi from working with a full team the entire semester. Luis Quiñones, Javier Aquino, André Pierre Gignac, Nahuel Guzmán and Guido Pizarro They led the absences, but Sebastián Córdova, Diego Reyes, Ozziel Herrera, Diego Lainez, Rafael Carioca and Marcelo Flores also had to miss at least one game due to injury.

In this way they conclude a semester to be forgotten, one in which they leave empty-handed and that pushes them to a change of generation within the club, which will now be in the hands of Robert Dante Siboldi.
