MONTERREY, Mexico (Interstat) — Tigres UANL opened its Liga MX season with a 2-0 victory over Tijuana on Saturday at Estadio Universitario de Nuevo León. André-Pierre Gignac broke a scoreless deadlock in the 61st minute before Ángel Correa added an insurance goal in the 74th. The result defied a pregame projection from Interstat, which had simulated a 1-1 draw despite giving Tigres a high probability to win. Tijuana substitute Mourad El Ghezouani received a yellow card in the 84th minute and was sent off with a red card just two minutes later. Both clubs now hold 0-0 records to start the competition.
