Both teams ended the game with 10 men on the field. Los Angeles' Diego Palacios was sent off after receiving a second yellow card in the 63rd minute, and Tigres' Rafael Carioca got a straight red card in the 85th minute.
Tigres captured the initial Campeones Cup in 2018, winning 3-1 on the road against Toronto FC. It earned its place this year by defeating Pachuca 2-1 in the Campeon de Campeones match in June.
