It was in the moments after the pushing and shouting in the center of the field that Gignac approached one of the stands to talk to a Rayados fan who looked a little nervous when the French forward confronted him and spoke in his ear.
After a few seconds listening to Gignac’s words, both separated with a cordial greeting and even pats on the back, but as soon as the Tigres player turned around he received a ‘bath’ of beer from the Monterrey fans, and both the Frenchman and the fan made obscene signs at each other before the rejection of the majority.
Previously, during the match, after a few disputed minutes of the second half, Gignac left the Clásico Regio upset after the substitution of Dante Siboldi in the 57th minute to give Nico Ibáñez minutes. Gignac made gestures and all kinds of disapproving gestures during his walk to the bench and once inside it.
Although Gignac is the top scorer of the Clásico Regio with 12 on his personal account, this time he was unable to score at Rayados’ home and Tigres let go three golden points ahead of the close of the regular phase of Clausura 2024.
