🚨 Tigres thrash Seattle in Champions Cup quarter-final first-leg win

The Concacaf Champions Cup quarter-final first-legs continued this evening, with another slate of showdowns featuring Liga MX and MLS sides locking horns.

Here's how it all went down tonight.

Sounders can't stand the heat at El Volcán

Scorers: Herrera (51'), Ragen (Own Goal - 75')

Liga MX outfit Tigres placed one foot into the Concacaf Champions Cup semi-final after a dominant 2-0 win over MLS side Seattle Sounders.

Los Auriazules failed to grab a deserved opener in the third minute of stoppage time when Ángel Correa couldn't convert from the spot, but would open the scoring six minutes after the restart, when a clever backheel pass from Fernando Gorriarán released Jonathan Herrera in the box to break the deadlock at Estadio Universitario.

The result would be put to bed in the 75th minute with a close-range header from substitute Joaquim, who rose highest to meet Juan Brunetta's near-post corner before watching his effort deflect off Jackson Ragen and past a sprawling Stefan Frei.

Tigres are now firmly in control of the two-legged affair ahead of the return fixture at Lumin Field a week from tonight.

Still to come...
