The Tigres UANL players defeated América 2-0 on Monday and secured their fifth historical title in the Women’s MX League, clinching the Apertura Tournament with a 3-0 aggregate after the 0-1 victory they had achieved in the first leg.

Led by the Canadian Carmelina Moscato, Tigres won the second leg of the final with goals from Jacqueline Ovalle and Belén Cruz, by showing composure in the area, both in this match and in the first of the series.

However, not everything was as simple as it was proposed in the previous one because Tigres found an opponent with an offensive attitude who came out with advanced lines and dominated in the first 20 minutes.

Despite the rival harassment, Tigres was able to quickly escape the pressure and ended up hitting first through Ovalle, who entered the area and with a solid left-footed kick made it 1-0. marker.

América insisted again with Camberos on the side, however, their forward lacked coupling and Kiana Palacios missed a couple of shots.

Moscato for the second half gave entry to the Nigerian Uchenna Kanu and was transcendental to 20′ when the African received a ball and assisted Cruz, so that he could put the ball on the right 2-0 and almost sentenced the title for the cats.

The visitors struggled, although their lack of ideas was greater and at times they showed frustration against a Tigres with practical football.

Tigres went for more and near the end a combination of Kanu and the American Mia Fischel almost made them extend the advantage, but in the end the cup ended up being lifted by the locals.2022
