San Diego FC suffers a loss in the League Cup at the hands of Tigres, while Angel Correa secures a dual signing

In a thrilling encounter, Mexican powerhouse Tigres emerged victorious against San Diego FC in the Leagues Cup. The final score was (2-1) in favour of Tigres, thanks to a double from Ángel Correa.

The first half of the match saw Ángel Correa open the scoring for Tigres in the 31st minute, setting the tone for the rest of the game. San Diego FC responded in the second half with a goal from Ángel Gutiérrez, temporarily tying the game. However, Correa's second goal in the 67th minute secured the win for Tigres.

San Diego FC made a strategic move in the second half, bringing on Hirving "Chucky" Lozano in the 62nd minute. Despite the reinforcement, Tigres managed to hold on to their lead and secure the victory.

Guido Pizarro's San Diego FC team remains at the top of the Leagues Cup tournament, with this loss not affecting their overall standing.

Meanwhile, in another Leagues Cup match, Paulinho's bicycle kick goal for Toluca against Montreal has been widely praised for its spectacular nature. While the goal has been described as "perfect" and "stellar," there is currently no explicit information indicating that it is a contender for the Puskás Award, which recognizes the best goal of the year worldwide. Given the recent match (August 2025) and the Puskás Award typically being announced later in the year, it is possible that the goal could be put forward or considered for the award at a later date.
