Tigres UANL battled but secured a good 2-0 win over Seattle Sounders, this in the Concacaf Champions Cup quarterfinals. From the start, the locals showed their dominance over the rival, coming close to breaking the net at 2′ in a cross shot by Ángel Correa on one side of the frame protected by Stefan Frei. The American goalkeeper was one of those who worked the most in the duel, as at 17′ he took a man-to-man tackle on César Araújo and prevented the fall of his goal and the debut goal scorer of the Uruguayan with the felinos since his arrival. On the other hand, the visit did not hit often but when it did, it was almost lethal, coming close in a descent that Paul Arriola could not take advantage of in a paradón by Nahuel Guzmán with his foot and leave with life to the regios, this at 40′. Facing the break, the auriazules had the most dangerous to go with an advantage at halftime, however, Correa dedicated himself to failing from the eleven steps once again, this time a penalty by Nouhou Tolo over Diego Lainez and go without goals towards the complement. The second lap was the same but more just, where the pupils of Guido Pizarro found the coveted via Ozziel Herrera. The ’77′ auriazul sent a good goal to the angle, after the assistance of taquito by Fernando Gorriarán at 50′ for the 1-0 deserved. As mentioned, the Sounders were truly dangerous when passing the felina area and at 62′ the parity did not arrive at their cause, thanks to Guzmán. The rosarino ventured a double save in the line and took the applause of the “Volcán” that chanted his name as a figure. ## Related news The emotional and footballistic was at the mercy of the universitarios, who at 76′ finished things with a header by Joaquim Pereira, element that entered from the first lap by a lesion of Vladimir Loroña, making the 2-0 and putting a foot in the semifinals of the international tournament; in addition, not receiving a goal with scoring in the Lumen Field will force the pupils of Brian Schmetzer to double the score if they want to advance to the next round. ¡Lleva el deporte contigo!
