Tigres needed to beat Rayados by two goals in this Sunday’s match, in the Second Leg of the Clausura 2024 Quarterfinals, but Robert Dante Siboldi’s team did not even achieve victory by drawing 1-1 and thus being eliminated on aggregate 3-2, so Monterrey is in the Semifinal and will face Cruz Azul.
The felines’ streak in Liguilla series ended, where they had added four consecutively in their favor, but tonight it ended with the elimination at the hands of the archrival, in a match with controversy, since the Cerro de la Silla team had to playing with a man less from the 26th minute and Jorge Rodríguez was forgiven the red card.
Controversy, Cork plays ‘for free’
Before the controversy occurred, the Auriazules’ first goal-scoring play arrived, Juan Brunetta took the ball three quarters of the field and from outside the area he dared to shoot low and cross, but Esteban Andrada was attentive to keep the ball in the 12th minute.
The play that could have changed the course of the game occurred almost in the middle of the field in the 26th minute, Fernando Gorriarán suffered a tremendous attack from Jorge Rodríguez and the whistler, after consulting the VAR, considered that it was an accidental play, while the cats asked for the expulsion for Cork; Former referees such as Felipe Ramos Rizo and Francisco Chacón pointed out that it was Fernando Hernández’s mistake for not showing the red.
Great goal from Gignac
Tigres went ahead on the scoreboard in the 26th minute, tying the aggregate with a great goal from André-Pierre Gignac, after a play in which Brunetta took a free kick from the right and Andrada rejected it, but the ball was left to Diego Reyes , who assisted the Frenchman as best he could, for whom the ball did not fit comfortably and resorted to a spectacular resource, as he sent the ball into the nets with his hand.
Bomboro scored his 209th goal with Tigres and his 13th in the Clásicos Regios, being the top scorer both in the history of the felines and in fraternal duels.
Rayados would not fold his arms and Corcho almost achieved a great Olympic goal in the 38th minute, when he took a corner kick and between the crossbar and goalkeeper Carlos Felipe Rodríguez prevented the Albiazul goal.
Already in the second half, Monterrey was close to the fact that Germán Berterame had a clear option to shoot at goal, but against Jesús Angulo he managed to sweep away in time to avoid damage, when the 49th minute had barely passed.
Posts and goal
After a foul on the left wing, Sergio Canales sent a cross to Luis Romo, who tried to head the ball into the net, but the ball hit the post at 57′
And another post appeared at 59′, in a shot from outside the area by Sergio Canales, but on the rebound the ball was left for Jordi Cortizo, who pushed to make the game 1-1 and 3-2 on aggregate, forcing Tigres to go for two goals.
Monterrey looked more dangerous, but Siboldi’s changes continued until the 75th minute, taking Rafael Carioca and Diego Lainez off the field, and bringing in Juan Pablo Vigón and Nico Ibáñez. The movements seemed to be late, because at 83′ they barely made another pair, Luis Quiñonez and Marcelo Flores coming in for Ozziel Herrera and Guido Pizarro.
Tigres tried in the 90th minute, with a dangerous header that threatened to enter the goal, but Andrada was able to keep that ball, only a scare, since there would be no more goals in the remainder of the game.
