Midweek Match in Monterrey

The first leg of the semifinals will be played in Monterrey this week. With a Regio Clásico between Rayados and Tigres at the Volcán, the excitement for a great game has started to build. The match was going well, but it was clear that controversy made its presence felt in the stadium.

In the 35th minute, a foul was called just outside Tigres' penalty area, a dangerous opportunity for Monterrey. That's when Maxi Meza stepped up to take the free-kick. He shot with his right foot and surprised everyone, including goalkeeper Nahuel Guzmán, as he scored the opening goal.

Undoubtedly, it was a great goal for the visiting team, as no one expected a direct shot. What caused controversy inside and outside the stadium, especially on social media, was the lack of a clear replay to confirm if the ball had crossed the goal line completely.

The action became even more intense after the Tigres' goalkeeper deflected the ball, causing it to go over the goal line. This was not clearly seen in the television broadcast, and the commentators had different opinions, with some saying it was a goal and others claiming it wasn't.

The video of this goal was shared on social media, and the broadcasting network emphasized the terrible mistake made by the goalkeeper. However, the fans immediately remembered the controversy surrounding the goal's validity.
