Liga MX: Xolos of Tijuana meet against Tigres with victory over the time

In the first matchday of the Apertura 2026 Liga MX season, Xolos de Tijuana defeated Tigres 3-1.

Tigres had a goal disallowed due to a handball by Antonio Rodríguez. Yael Padilla scored for Xolos in the first half, and Rodrigo Aguirre was sent off in the first half for a foul involving Alejandro Gómez, making him the first player to receive a red card under the Prestianni Law. Tigres equalized through Ozziel Herrera in the 55th minute, but they were later reduced to ten men. In stoppage time, a penalty was awarded to Xolos, converted by Mourad El Ghezouani to make it 2-1. El Ghezouani then scored again after a defensive error by Tigres' goalkeeper Gorriarán.
