This Saturday Tigres and Pachuca, two of the best teams in the Liga MX Closing Tournament, met this Saturday in Texas in a friendly match to maintain the level during the break for the FIFA date.
Tigres defeated Pachuca 2-1 with goals from Luis Quiñónez and Carlos González in the first half, and Roberto de la Rosa in the second half that gave the final score of this “friendly” match.
Although the match was carried out without problems, a altercation at the end of it due to a fight between Miguel Herrera, technical director of Tigres UANL, and part of the Pachuca bench.
The fight broke out at Tigres vs. Pachuca.
It all started with a kick received by Javier Aquino.
Miguel Herrera got heated because the referee didn’t even get a yellow card and ended up making words with the Pachuca bench.
Aquino had to leave due to injury.

At minute 70 of the match, Roberto de La Rosa, defender of Pachuca, committed a harsh foul on Javier Aquino and for which he had to leave the match injured. The referee did not give De La Rosa a yellow card, so Herrera went to complain to the referee at the end of the game and ended up shoving Pachuca’s bench.
There are still no reports if Aquino’s injury is serious and I know how long he will be away from the field after the injury he suffered in the friendly match against the tuzos.
All this happens, before Tigres and Pachuca meet on next April 7 in the corresponding match for the Liga MX Closing Tournament, in which the new leader of the tournament can be defined, since until now the tuzos are in first place and followed Los Tigres UANL.
The tuzos go first with 23 points after 10 days, with eight wins, one draw and one loss in the tournament. The felines are in second place with 23 units with 7 wins, two draws and one loss after 10 dates.
The day 11 will be of high voltage for both teams because the faces will be seen again after this fight and it will be defined who continues in the first place of the table of the Liga MX.
