The frenchman Thauvin arrived to Tigres a year ago, alongside with Cordova from America, now the combination pay offs

A year ago Frenchman Florian Thauvin closed the deal with Tigres to become the team's new reinforcement, where he reunited with countryman André-Pierre Gignac.

Cruz Azul's best player is out and allows Miguel Herrera's Tigres to take a breather

The attacking midfielder coincided with Gignac at Olympique between 2013 and 2015, so now they are together again in search of positive results with Tigres outfit.

When Tigres started to think about moves for the Apertura 2022, Sebastián Córdova was one of the players who surely was leaving the squad, as he has not lived up to the expectations generated by his signing.

However, the board of directors of the Monterrey club were only thinking of loaning him out, as they believe that the youngster still has a lot to offer.

Now, in the first match day both players have combined for a sensational goal, at the beginning of the second half where Cordova provided a beautiful assist for the Frenchman to tie the score. Maybe Cordova will have a resurgence this season after a lot of criticism.

He is not playing well and is one less in the Tigres vs Cruz Azul game, all for 1 million dollars
