CLUB TIJUANA 6-2 PUEBLA FC (MARCADOR FINAL)
LIGA MX-Clausura 2017 | Fecha 2
Tijuana, Baja California, 13 de enero de 2017._ Xoloitzcuintles coronó la semana de su décimo aniversario con una victoria categórica (6-2) sobre Puebla FC este viernes en el Estadio Caliente.
Las anotaciones que desataron la algarabía en el partido número 200 del Mictlán fueron obra de Avilés Hurtado (2), Milton Caraglio, Paul Arriola, Ignacio Malcorra y Joe Corona.
Avilés Hurtado comenzó con la feria de goles al minuto 3. El ariete colombiano remató un centro de primera intención y perforó la meta custodiada por Campestrini.
La Franja trató de poner resistencia en la recta final primer tiempo y emparejó los cartones desde el manchón penal por conducto de Pedro Canelo, sin embargo, la escuadra fronteriza remó hasta el final y logró retomar la ventaja antes del descanso desde los botines de Avilés Hurtado.
En el amanecer del lapso complementario, los camoteros se enchufaron nuevamente e igualaron la pizarra con un tiro potente de Patricio Araujo.
Pese a ese balde de agua fría, la jauría mantuvo su postura ofensiva y volvió a tomar la delantera al minuto 62 con un remate de volea de Paul Arriola.
Con la anotación del volante rojinegro, los Canes Aztecas tomaron el ritmo del enfrentamiento y consiguieron hacer el gol de la tranquilidad al minuto 67 con una definición de tijera de Milton Caraglio.
Tras la diana de Milton Caraglio, el Club Tijuana rompió los circuitos de Puebla y cosechó el quinto tanto en su cuenta con un disparo de tiro libre de Ignacio Malcorra.
Con la Franja en la lona, el peso ofensivo del escuadrón comandado por Miguel Herrera se multiplicó y se coronó con la anotación del canterano Joe Corona al minuto 84.
De esta forma, los Xoloitzcuintles sumaron sus primeras tres unidades de la competencia.
Ahora, la jauría se preparará para afrontar una semana de doble compromiso. El martes 17 de enero visitará a Cimarrones de Sonora por la Fecha 1 de la COPA CORONA MX-Clausura 2017 y el sábado 21 de enero se medirá al CD Guadalajara en el Estadio Chivas, como parte de la jornada 3.

CLUB TIJUANA BEATS CLUB PUEBLA IN HOME OPENER
Xoloitzcuintles score four unanswered in 6-2 win in LIGA MX Week 2
TIJUANA (Jan. 13, 2017) –Club Tijuana Xoloitzcuintles celebrated its 10th anniversary Friday night with a flurry of goals. Coach Miguel Herrera’s team scored four unanswered goals in the second half in a 6-2 win against visiting Club Puebla at Estadio Caliente.
Aviles Hurtado (4th and 45th minute) scored twice while Paul Arriola (60th), Milton Caraglio (67th), Ignacio Malcorra (79th) and Joe Corona (84th) scored for the Xoloitzcuintles.
The win gives Club Tijuana its first points of the season, earning three after a 2-0 loss at Monarcas Morelia in the season opener last week. Puebla is now 0-2 in the young LIGA MX 2017 Clausura season.
The Xoloitzcuintles celebrated with skydivers and live music at halftime but the bigger joy came on the field with the goals.
Hurtado scored the first two. His initial goal came on a play in which he flicked the ball, bouncing it just past the stretched out Cristian Campestrini. Pedro Canelo tied the match 1-1 via a penalty kick in the 41st minute. Arriola was whistled for a foul in the area to prompt the PK call. But Arriola quickly made up for the play. He sent a deep pass down the right sideline, finding Hurtado one-on-one with a defender. The Puebla defender missed the ball and left Hurtado alone against Campestrini. The Colombian striker didn’t waste his chance moments before halftime.
In the second half, it appeared Puebla would make it a tough match. Patricio Araujo tied the match 2-2 in the 59th minute when he sent in a loose ball inside the penalty box, catching Club Tijuana goalkeeper Gibran Lajud off guard.
Tijuana would answer with four goals. Arriola blasted in his goal from just inside the penalty box. The Chula Vista, Calif. native buried it to the top-left corner of the net after an errant clear by a Puebla defender. Then Caraglio sent his goal in with an awkward scissor kick but got just enough for the ball to slowly roll past the goal line for a 4-2 Club Tijuana lead.
Malcorra also scored in fancy fashion. The Argentine bent a free kick just over the defensive wall and past a defenseless Campestrini. It was Malcorra’s first goal with Club Tijuana. The free kick came after Corona created a foul just outside the penalty box on a run at goal. Robert Herrera was shown a direct red card for the foul in the 79th minute. Puebla finished with 10 men.
Corona, who returned to Club Tijuana this offseason after a loan to Dorados de Sinaloa, finished out the scoring when he tapped in a loose ball off another errant clear at the mouth of the goal.
Newcomer Martin Lucero nearly scored moments later when he sent a header off a cross but Campestrini slapped it away at the final moment.
The Xoloitzcuintles will now travel to Guadalajara to face Chivas Saturday Jan. 20 in a Week 3 match at Estadio Omnilife. But before that, Herrera’s team will open play in the Copa Corona MX Tuesday Jan. 17 at Cimarrones de Sonora.
