Orlando City vs Tigres UANL

Can the Lions complete the upset of the Mexican giants after failing to score a road goal in the first leg?

“As you know this is still a young team, but with very passionate supporters and the culture they have developed is very good,” Pareja said ahead of the match. However, the Mexican side was able to get some rest for the likes of Sebastián Córdova, Jesus Garza, Juan Vigon, and Diego Lainez. Even without Gignac, Tigres has plenty of firepower, including Uruguayan international Gorriarán, Córdova, and striker Nicolás Ibáñez. That said, Antonio Carlos was on the bench Saturday and could feature tonight. Some important players, such as attacking midfielder Fernando Gorriarán — who was a problem for Orlando last week — and central defender Samir went the full distance. Rookie Duncan McGuire scored the Lions’ first goal from open play in all competitive matches in 2023, deflecting home a perfectly headed cross from newcomer Dagur Dan Thorhallsson in the second half. That match was played in Orlando during the pandemic. Unfortunately, Chris Durkin leveled the game 10 minutes from the end of normal time.

That was obviously not a true road match. That match in Mexico

But the second goal needed to overcome Tigres’ away-goal advantage never materialized.
