In Victoria on Tuesday night, Tigre played in a continental semi-final for the first time in their history, in spite of the fact that in the league their form has been so poor they’re still without a domestic win this season. In each of their previous Sudamericana home matches, they’d scored four goals. The pattern wasn’t to continue against Colombian giants Millonarios, but it was a pretty open match which only ended goalless thanks to the width of the woodwork. The highlights are right here.
