Goals and Highlights: Necaxa 0-3 Tigres in Liga MX 2023

Necaxa falls by a landslide against Tigres and the felines take all three points.

GOOOOOOOOOOOOOL FOR TIGRES! GOOOOOOOOOOOL FOR QUIÑONES!

 

The area that had previously shown the best performance in the Necaxa team, the defense, is now also experiencing difficulties. Some players are showing a lack of concentration, poor communication and frustration can be seen in the defenders' expressions. The Felinos' third goal seems to be closer because of this situation.

GOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOL FOR TIGRES! ANGULO NAILS THE SECOND OF THE NIGHT!

The home team has fewer quality options on the bench compared to the Universitarios, and this situation becomes more complicated considering they have already made one change due to injury. This makes it difficult to imagine a different scenario for the Necaxa team than the current one.

Gignac attempted to score his second goal with a header, however, Necaxa's goalkeeper showed security and determination in catching the ball. Tigres is also taking the initiative and not allowing Necaxa to be the only team to stand out at the moment.

Both strategists relied on their starters for the start of the second half.

The referee opted to add 4 extra minutes of play to the match.

The few opportunities in which the Universitarios have advanced into the opponent's area have been effectively neutralized by the Rayos team. Their communication on the field has been solid, managing to close the empty spaces effectively and applying a strong defense when it comes to competing for possession of the ball.

Although the Universitarios have had few forays, they have proven to be effective. Up to this point, the only truly dangerous opportunity created by Robert Dante Siboldi's followers has led to positive results. On the other hand, the Necaxa team holds possession of the ball, although they have failed to exert decisive influence in the final phase of the field.

Contrary to what has been observed in previous matches, the university team faces difficulties in dominating possession of the ball and exerting control over the development of the match. Despite this, the situation has not been unfavorable, as they have demonstrated their ability to take advantage of counterattacking opportunities and generate threats.

Yellow card for André

The Frenchman was self-conditioned after complaining to the referee.

GOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOL FOR TIGRES!!!! GOOOOOOOOOOOL BY GIGNAC!

The feline teams show the intention of causing damage as soon as the hosts give them the opportunity, while the Necaxa team has so far opted to retreat into their own zone with the objective of containing the attacks coming from the University.

This is the lineup that Tigres is sending to the Volcán Universitario pitch with the aim of taking the three points on Matchday 4 of La Liga MX.

In a surprise resolution, Tigres was eliminated from the Leagues Cup in the last minute by their fiercest rival, Rayados. This result has been labeled as painful by coach Robert Dante Siboldi. Despite this, Siboldi is not one to dive into prolonged regrets and is instead focused on the challenges ahead, particularly the resumption of the Liga MX tournament.
"Yes, it hurts us, of course it hurts us and we had the expectations of moving forward, we faced a very good rival, it was our turn to lose now, but the truth is that we are very proud of the attitude and the commitment of the players, of the players who entered the field and this is a team and when we win we all win and when we lose, we all lose.

According to the date provided by the Tigres team, the match is scheduled to take place on Sunday, September 10 in Austin, Texas, at 4:30 a.m. Central Time. This means that the match will take place shortly after the team participates in the next two rounds of the national tournament. This busy schedule would mean a back-to-back series of games for the team, and they would also have to manage the travel for this clash in a short period of time.

Tigres has shared through its online platforms that it plans to participate in a training match in Austin, Texas, in less than a month. On this occasion, the opponent will be none other than Club América. This team, after an unfavorable experience in their stay in the United States, would be returning to take part in a friendly match.

For a considerable period of time, there was speculation about the actions that the Necaxa team would take regarding the incorporation of new players for the remainder of the Apertura 2023 tournament. This followed their unsatisfactory performance in the Leagues Cup.
In recent days, the departure of player Maxi Silvera materialized, who said goodbye through social media platforms. In his farewell message, he expressed his gratitude to the club's administration for the time he shared with the institution. Coinciding with this, on Thursday morning, the Rayos team made official the inclusion of Paraguayan striker Brian Samudio as its most recent addition to the team.

Mexican club Necaxa has sent a formal communication to Argentine team Banfield regarding a financial matter concerning player Milton Giménez, who was loaned to the Argentine club at the beginning of the season. Necaxa has requested payment from Banfield for the player's loan, which took place in February of last year, when Giménez joined the team under then coach Javier Sanguinetti.

The wait for the Liga MX is over, soccer action is back with all the emotions that come with it, more goals, more controversy and above all more soccer between different teams in Mexico. In this match, Tigres and Necaxa will face each other as part of the fourth round of the Apertura 2023, where a new champion will be sought in the Mexican first division championship.

Tigres and Necaxa have faced each other on a total of 33 occasions (14 feline victories, 9 draws, 10 hydrocalida victories) where the scales are largely tipped in favor of the home side. In terms of goals scored, Tigres has the advantage with 44 goals, followed by Necaxa with 33 in the statistics. Their last duel dates back to Matchday 10 of the Clausura 2023 where Tigres won 0-1 at Victoria Stadium.

It is the home of Club Necaxa, a professional soccer team that competes in Liga MX, the top tier of Mexican soccer.The stadium has a capacity to hold approximately 25,000 spectators, making it one of the medium-sized stadiums in Mexico.

On the other hand, the Necaxa team is forced to get the victory in this fourth chapter of the tournament since after the events that took place in the Leagues Cup where the Rayos failed to get even one victory and therefore ended up eliminated in the group stage, the team from Aguascalientes seriously needs to get three points since Necaxa currently has 2 draws and 1 win, being in the low positions of the general and still without knowing the victory so far in the Apertura 2023.

The Tigres team returns to the Volcán Universitario with the mission of continuing to regain their level and increase their strength in terms of points and victories after losing the Clásico Regio against Rayados de Monterrey in the Leagues Cup Round of 16. It should also be remembered that in the local tournament, Tigres are undefeated with 1 win and 2 ties; however, the felines must start to add victories to reposition themselves at the top of the general standings and remain in the playoff qualification zone for when the tournament enters its final phase, as fighting in the new playoffs could jeopardize their crown.

After an exciting month of hiatus due to the Leagues Cup tournament, Liga MX returns with renewed energy to continue captivating fans with its exciting soccer. Now, with the culmination of this tournament, the focus is back on the fight for supremacy in Liga MX, where teams will be looking to get back in action, score crucial points and move up the standings in search of national championship glory.
