Tigers opened the scoring but Bruno Valdez has equalized for America in the 68th minute of the Liga MX final. Andre-Pierre Gignac scored a brilliant goal at the stroke of halftime, but Valdez has gotten on the end of a America corner to draw level in the first leg at the Estadio Azteca.
Andre-Pierre Gignac has given Tigres a 1-0 advantage over America in the first leg of the Liga MX final. Oribe Peralta sent a penalty over for America earlier in the first half, and Tigres now have complete control of the tie.

This dog is going to be the next manager of Crystal Palace. Book that sh*t. Just imagine the press conferences:
Thomas Meunier is a right back so this goal probably shouldn’t have been allowed to stand. It’s outrageous in the extreme.
This goal is so luscious that the 3 Musketeers candy bar company if filing a lawsuit for stealing their recipe. This goal is softer than goose down feathers and silkier than satin. Thomas Meunier pick up your phone, kittens are calling you, they want their velvety fluff back.
For me, it was an old VHS tape called Ooh Aah Cantona - The Cantona Phenomenon that changed everything. Before the days of soccer on ESPN or NBCSN, well before the era of YouTube skill show compilations and with the lasting memories of the 2002 World Cup seared into my mind, I was introduced to Eric Cantona.
The number seven emblazoned on his red shirt, striding around the pitch with dad bod physique, his collar upturned and with all the beguiling qualities of an existential Frenchman on his third glass of absinthe, Cantona was a side of football I’d never seen before.
A joint effort between the Japanese and Spanish has seen the first footballer successfully launched into space. Takashi Inui, a Japanese international and midfielder for Eibar, rocketed to infinity and beyond with the help of Spanish goalkeeper Iago Herrerin.
According to our planisphere star chart, Inui is currently near Mars’s moon Phobos, taking pictures of the Martian planet’s polar ice caps. He will hopefully return to Earth in time for Eibar’s next match against against Sporting in the Spanish Cup.
