Clásico Regiomontano

Clásico Regiomontano, Clásico Regio, Clásico del Norte or Clásico Norteño is a football derby in Nuevo León, Mexico, between crosstown rival teams C.F. Monterrey and Tigres UANL. Since the first Clásico in 1974, the two teams have competed over 100 times for bragging rights and city honour.[1] It is known for being one of the most intensely competed derbies in Mexican football, even being regarded by people in the city of Monterrey and Northern Mexico as the most important Mexican derby. The match is the biggest game of the season in Monterrey, and every year, fans wait in line for days outside the stadium just to get tickets, which are often priced at two or three times their regular value.[2][3]

Notable Clásicos

edit
  • Clásico 1.[1] The first Clásico Regiomontano. 13 July, 1974 saw the first game Tigres played in the First Division with Monterrey, and resulted in a tie. Result: Tigres 3–3 Rayados.
  • Clásico 2. The first victory went to Monterrey, with a score of 2–1. Nilo Acuna scored at the 44th and Alfredo Jimenez at the 89th minute. Tigres’ rather late goal was made by Alberto Rodriguez at the 92nd minute.
  • Clásico 12 and 13.[1][6] The first Clásico in the playoffs. With the first leg on 6 June, and the second leg on 16 June 1979, Tigres and Rayados met in the playoffs for the first time, although this was not a direct elimination instance. In the 1978–79 season, league playoffs were played in an elimination "group-stage" format, in which, after league elimination, two groups of four teams were formed and the leader of each group advanced to the final. Tigres and Rayados were in Group 2, along with Pumas and Zacatepec. Both games were played in the Estadio Universitario. Tigres won Clásico 12 with a goal by Mantegazza at the 18th minute. Clásico 13 ended with a draw by 1–1, in which Rayados' Raúl Isiordia scored first, at the 8th minute, only to be tied at the 40th by Gerónimo Barbadillo. With these results, Tigres managed to tie for first place with Pumas on the group leaderboard, but were not able to qualify to the final due to goal difference.
  • Clasico 23. Rayados wins after six years. On 17 September 1983, Rayados defeated Tigres at their stadium after six years without winning, since 5 February 1977. Tigres held at the time what was the longest undefeated streak in these Clásicos.
  • Clásico 51. What is known as the “Relegation Clásico”. Tigres had three poor seasons, being one of the worst teams in Mexico.[7] It was a done deal that Tigres would be relegated to Primera División A, but to confirm it, they only needed to lose one more game. Contrary to popular belief, Tigres was already in Primera A even if it won this game, as the results for it to stay depended on a different game, and no matter the result of the clasico, they were already relegated to Primera A, with goals by Sergio "El Pibe" Verdirame and Luis Miguel Salvador, Monterrey won with a score of 2–1.
  • Clasico 61. Run over Rayados with six goals. On 26 February 2000, Tigres visited Rayados at their stadium. Tigres outplayed Monterrey and scored six goals. Rayados claimed that there was an irregularity with the signature on the contract of Osmar Donizete. The game was eventually annulled.
  • Clásico 71 . The "4 a 1". On 4 June 2003, was the first time that Tigres and Rayados met in the playoff semifinals. There was a sense that whoever won this semifinal would have been the favourite for the championship. Tigres started the first game well, scoring very early 1–0, but 4 unanswered goals by Rayados turned the tide in the game and in the Semifinals.
  • Clásico 75 . Six goals again. Tigres visited Rayados and humiliated them in their own stadium with a score of 6–2. Tigres scored 6 goals in a derby for the second time.
  • Clásico 79. Another semifinal encounter. Tigres was victorious in the first game (Clásico 78) 1–0 in the Estadio Universitario. For the second game, Rayados won 2–1, Defender Claudio Suárez saw the red card in a play that gave Rayados a penalty and the goal lead. Rayados defeated Tigres with a goal by Guillermo "El Guille" Franco as the game neared the 90 minute mark. This was the 2nd time in which Rayados advanced to the championship final games at the expense of Tigres.
  • Clásico 80. It was the first time that a Clásico Regio was played outside the country. In the finals of the Interliga 2006, held at the Home Depot Center in Carson, California, Tigres defeated Monterrey by 2–1.
  • Clásico 99. Rayados defeats Tigres for the third time in direct-elimination playoffs. Tigres finished the regular season as the leader with 35 points and only 2 defeats in the regular season. One of their two defeats was against Monterrey at Clasico 97. Initially, Monterrey did not qualify for the playoffs, ending the regular season in the ninth place. Queretaro F.C. finished in eight place and was meant to be the playoff opponent of Tigres, but was relegated to Ascenso MX because the team had accumulated the lowest point coefficient in the last 2 years. The situation with Queretaro was able to get Monterrey off the hook as they were the next eligible team to travel to the playoffs. At Clasico 98, the away leg of the playoffs, Monterrey defeated Tigres 1–0 at the Estadio Tecnologico, in a close game that Tigres controlled most of the time. In the second leg, Tigres needed to win by 1–0, or by a difference of two goals because of the away goals rule (which means they needed to finish the game 3–1, 4–2, 5–3 in their favour to advance). Tigres came out aggressive and Danilinho scored a goal early on in the game. Minutes later, with a game totally handled by Tigres, Israel Jimenez scored an own goal that tied the game 1–1, for an aggregate of 2–1 that would send Tigres packing.
  • Clásico 100. The 100th edition of the Clásico Regiomontano. Tigres painfully lost the Clásico 99 by way of an own goal of Israel Jimenez and was eliminated from the playoffs by Monterrey. Because of these woes, Tigres was eager for a chance to redeem themselves. Both teams started aggressive but Tigres had the first chance and a young Alan Pulido scored a header which would set the score to 1–0 after a long pass by Jesús Dueñas. After a mistake by Hugo Ayala, Humberto Suazo tied the game 1–1. Pulido scored again to make it 2–1 for Tigres. In the second half, Tigres controlled the game and captain Lucas Lobos scored the final 3–1, effectively getting their redemption after losing in the playoffs.
  • Clásico 101. Quarterfinals at the Copa MX. After a 0–2 lead for Tigres at the end of the first half, César Delgado entered as a substitute and turned things around for Monterrey by making it 1–2 and assisting the goal that levelled the score on the 93rd minute—a dramatic header from Luis Madrigal. This forced penalty kicks without extra time, as per Copa MX rules. Rayados scored 4 out of 4 penalty kicks. Tigres' first shot was held by Rayados' goalkeeper Juan de Dios Ibarra, and Manuel Viniegra hit the crossbar on their last shot for a final score of 4–2 for Monterrey.[8]
  • Clásico 115. 2017 saw the first ever Clasico Regiomontano league final in the Apertura 2017. Tigres and Rayados would tie 1–1 in Tigres home stadium thanks to an early goal by Nicolás Sánchez and a Panenka from Enner Valencia. In the second leg, Rayados played against Tigres in their home stadium, the Estadio BBVA having never been beaten at home since Tigres beat them 2–0 in the quarterfinals of the 2017 Clasura playoffs. An early goal by Dorlan Pabon would be irrelevant as Tigres would score twice thanks to goals by Eduardo Vargas and Francisco Meza. The game would end 1–2 with Tigres winning 3–2 aggregate and winning their sixth Liga MX championship as well as bragging rights in the first ever Clasico Regiomontano finals.
  • Clásico 119 & 120. The Clasico Regiomontano goes global. This was the first Clasico Regiomontano played in an international tournament, at the finals of the 2019 CONCACAF Champions League. The final was contested in two-legged home-and-away format. The first leg was hosted by Tigres UANL at the Estadio Universitario in San Nicolás de los Garza on 23 April 2019, while the second leg was hosted by Rayados de Monterrey at the Estadio BBVA Bancomer in Guadalupe on 1 May 2019. Monterrey won the finals 2–1 on aggregate for their fourth CONCACAF Champions League title and prevented Tigres from winning the CONCACAF Champions League for the third time after losing the 2015–16 and 2016–17 editions to Club América and Pachuca respectively. Tigres would finally go on to win the CONCACAF Champions League in 2020, whilst Monterrey is still credited as the first winner of the derby in an international tournament.
  • Clásico 131. Facing off in another Liguilla tie, Tigres won on the road 1-0 in the 2nd leg of the semifinals on May 20, 2023 thanks to a Sebastián Córdova goal late in the 2nd half. This gave Tigres a 2-1 aggregate victory to advance to the 2023 Clausura final, where they ultimately defeated Chivas to win their 8th league crown. It was a surprsing victory for Tigres, as that season was defined by multiple managerial changes and Rayados had just come off an impressive regular season where they finished top of the standings with a record 40 points.
  • Clásico 132. In the first Clásico played in the United States since 2010, the two sides faced off in the round of 16 of the 2023 Leagues Cup at Shell Energy Stadium. In a tense match, Rayados would ultimately come away victorious thanks to a penalty kick goal from new arrival Sergio Canales late in second-half stoppage time following a lengthy and controversial VAR review.
  • Clásico 133. In their first league meeting of the 2023-24 campaign, Tigres handily defeated Rayados 3-0 at Estadio Universitario. André-Pierre Gignac would become the all-time leading scorer in Clasico Regiomontano history, scoring twice to bring his tally in the debry to 12 goals.
  • Clásico 135. The first Clásico to end in a 3–3 draw since 2007. Rayados' third goal came at the last play of the match in the 90 10' minute, in which Germán Berterame headed the ball to tie one of the most epic Clásicos of all time.
