Week 11 brings us a match on Mar 12th where Tigres UANL plays host to América in a Liga MX match. Weather on match day is looking like a cloudy but warm day with daytime temperatures of 24 degrees, which is great football weather. In their last match, Tigres UANL recorded a 1-0 shutout win against Necaxa. Fernando Gorriarán struck first for Tigres UANL in the 41st minute, and that single goal was all that was necessary as neither team could manage any more scoring In the end, Necaxa couldn’t muster any offence and Tigres UANL ran away with the shutout win. Tigres UANL should be reasonably happy with their recent performance, earning 21 points in their last 10 matches, while in their last match, América recorded a 0-3 loss against Pachuca. Javier López struck first for Pachuca in the 4th minute on a feed from Roberto Carlos De La Rosa Gonzalez, then Jesus Daniel Hernandez Casiano added another in the 10th minute on a feed from Avilés Hurtado In the end, América was frustrated by Pachuca’s defence and couldn’t put any tallies on the board. Pachuca ended the match with the shutout victory. América should be reasonably happy with their recent performance, earning 17 points in their last 10 matches.
