Cucho es medio equipo😢😢
People have never watched Tigres play or something if they think this wasn't the plan… They do this every series.
Tigays equipo Chico, enano, minisculo, microscopico, chaparro.
Vuelta:
🇲🇽 TIGRES UANL 4-2 🇺🇸 COLUMBUS CREW.
⚽⚽⚽⚽. ⚽⚽.
Tigres equipo chico 😂
Columbus es el único que se ve que pueda dar alguna sorpresa juega mejorcito que los otros.
Gracias Columbus por participar 😂
Tigres 4, Crew 0.
Time to get battered 3-0 in the return leg
Brunetta a beast
am a tigres fan but they escape with a tie, colombus had them even when they were one man down they create much more, tigres only had one good one and score thanks to ginac but colombus outplay them all night long.
Why spoil the score in the thumbnail and title? I'll never understand why leagues do this…
Womp womp mls suck
1:53 el mismo hombre que marcó ante tigres en la final de la concacaf champions league 2020 cuando jugaba en los ángeles fc
El mejor jugador de tigres el árbitro 😎😎
Columbus literally had 5-6 shots on goal that “should” of gone in, but now they will have to suffer a most likely loss at Tigres.
Tigres gana la vuelta en el volcan y pasa a simifinales
Second match: Tigres 16×0 Columbus
Incredible performance from the crew, excited for next week! 🖤💛
too much help on favor of the MLS clubs…
Did Columbus people cheer for the goal of Tigres? What the F man lol😂
Este partido fue mas competitivo, no como el América vs new england donde el América gano fácil, incluso el América pudo haber metido 6 o 7 goles, en este partido los tigres sufrieron, pero bueno mañana el inter de miami vs Monterrey seguramente sera un partido duro igual, esto le conviene al fútbol mexicano tener un roce competitivo cada vez mas rispido con los de la mls
el tigre nada más puede ganar de local con equipos chicos y con el arbitraje a su favor
Veremos q pasa en el volcan estadio 🏟 de tigres 🐯 en Monterrey surte 😊
Americans either don’t know about Champions cup or don’t care enough to show up. MLS teams barely have a home advantage with these crowds. Sad to see
Columbus crew should have put way more goals
4:08 According to dumbass FIFA rules, this should not be a foul.
Lots of empty seats
Goodluck in Mexico 😂
MLS is a joke, LIGA MX the best
00:50 Tigres⚽️ 🟡🔵
1:53 Columbus ⚽️🟡⚫️
hopefully UANL Tigres vs Inter Miami match in semifinal , Gignac (France) vs Messi (Argentina) , 10 vs 10 .
No soy fan de tigres pero ya sabíamos que iba los Tigres😂
