A cat took to the pitch and got a touch on the ball in the Leagues Cup match between Real Salt Lake and Tigres.
Liga MX champions Tigres will build a statue outside Estadio Universitario in honor of French striker Andre-Pierre Gignac, who responded to the news by scoring a hat trick inside 23 minutes 3-1 win over Necaxa on Saturday.
Gignac broke Tigres’ scoring record last weekend when he netted his 105th goal for the club in the 1-0 win against Pumas and was serenaded by 105 mariachis with a rendition of “El Rey” [The King] after the team’s warm-up on Saturday.
