Video. The exquisite definition with which Gignac gives life to Tigres against Monterrey

The second leg of the Clausura 2024 quarterfinals of Liga MX between Monterrey and Tigres has left several plays to talk about in the first half. But without a doubt the postcard that will be remembered most from these first 45 minutes is the majestic goal by André Pierre Gignac with which he achieved the 0-1 score that gives life to the cats.

In the 26th minute, preceded by a foul by Héctor Moreno, Juan Brunetta took a direct free kick. The Argentine playmaker’s shot tested Esteban Andrada, who could not keep the ball and rejected the ball.

Diego Herrera recovered the ball and played late for André Pierre Gignac, who finished in a sui generis way: with a memorable little backheel to beat Esteban Andrada.

With this result, the overall score is 2-2. Rayados would advance to the semifinals because they obtained a better position in the general table than those from the UANL.

To advance, Tigres needs one more goal and not concede. The Clásico Regio is being played with intensity and the tie seems more open than ever.
