Tigres vs. Cruz Azul: preview of the Liga MX match
Cruz Azul wants to start the Apertura 2022 of the Liga MX on the right foot and, for now, they are achieving it. Despite not having possession of the ball, the 'Máquina' gets a victory in Tigres' home thanks to Baca's goal.
At the 16th minute, Christian Tabó received a deep pass and ran along the right sideline. Before reaching the end line, the Uruguayan winger crossed the ball for Antuna near the penalty spot.
From that area, Rafael Baca unleashed a strong shot that beat the resistance of the goal defended by Miguel Ortega. The Universitario Stadium fell silent, but Tigres' fans know that the match has just begun and they encourage their beloved team to equalize the game.
The 'Felinos' begin the new season with the mission of avenging what happened last season. Under the direction of Miguel Herrera, the northern team reached two semifinals, but they could not advance further.
The 'Máquina Cementera', on the other hand, started a new era with the arrival of Uruguayan coach Diego Aguirre and they did it on the right foot, as they won the Supercopa de la Liga MX by defeating Atlas.
