UANL Tigers On Friday they achieved a painful 1-0 victory against San Luis Athletic thanks to the Uruguayan goal Fernando Gorriaran on the seventh day of the Mexican soccer Apertura tournament. The club from the Autonomous University of Nuevo León reached 17 points to temporarily put itself in the overall lead, waiting for the result obtained by Cruz Azul, which has 16 and will face León on Saturday.
In the match played at the Universitario stadium, Tigres played with one man less from the 34th minute due to the sending off of Argentine midfielder Juan Brunetta for a heavy foul on Uruguayan Juan Manuel Sanabria.
With what looked like a goalless draw, the home team grabbed a stoppage time victory through Gorriaran, who hit the ball against the right post with a shot from outside the area in the 98th minute.
In other games on Friday, Atlas defeated Pachuca 2-0 with goals from Víctor Ríos and Ángel Márquez. Puebla beat Querétaro 2-1 with goals from Brazilian Gustavo Ferrareis and Santiago Ormeño. For the “Gallos Blancos” of Querétaro, who did not win the tournament, debutant Juan Robles scored.
