Tigers must win by the maximum possible amount of goals and hope that Mazatlán beats Santos to qualify for the final playoff. Currently, the team led by Miguel Herrera has a spot in the play-in round after their partial victory (1-0) over Atlético San Luis.
At the 54th minute, after a cross from Angulo, André Pierre Gignac headed the ball to score the first goal in favor of the 'Felinos'. However, the validation of the goal was in suspense due to VAR review, but after several minutes, the referee validated it.
Now, Tigers will step on the gas pedal to score more goals and secure their spot in the playoffs. On the other hand, with the partial result, Atlético San Luis is out of the title race.
