Cincinnati took the lead early in the match with a goal from Pavel Bucha two minutes after the start. However, Tigres reacted and managed to equalize thanks to Nicolás Ibáñez, who headed in a cross from Sebastián Córdova.
Although there were few goal-scoring opportunities after the goals, both teams struggled to develop a fluid game. Guido Pizarro, in his debut as a strategist, will seek to take a step forward in the next match to be held at Estadio Universitario.
Tigres appeared somewhat bewildered at the start but managed to recover and equalize the score in the 16th minute. Although the draw was not the ideal result for the team from Monterrey, they will need to work hard to overcome Cincinnati in the next clash and advance in the competition.
