Gignac's last dance: Tigres chase Concacaf glory against Toluca

Gignac's farewell, one last night

This is it. André-Pierre Gignac plays his final match for Tigres tonight in the Concacaf Champions Cup final. The French legend, your captain, your all-time top scorer, walks onto the pitch for one last game in the shirt. Manager Guido Pizarro confirmed it, Gignac's journey ends here. He's not just any player. He's the face of an era. (1)

The final against Toluca

Toluca stand in the way. They've climbed the Concacaf club rankings and won't roll over. Tigres sit top of those same rankings despite a messy Liga MX Clausura, eliminated in the quarterfinals by Chivas. That domestic campaign was historically poor for both Tigres and Monterrey. But tonight isn't about the league. It's about sending Gignac out with a trophy. Concacaf adjusted the kickoff time, so double-check your schedule. (1) (2)
