wpparagraph > <p>Did you know that Gignac has been playing in Liga MX for 6 years Although that may seem like a long time its not much when comparing him to some of the other huge Liga MX players <p> < wpparagraph > < wpparagraph > <p>Players like Cabinho Cardozo and Aguinaga have the stats to back them up but theyve also been playing for almost double the time of Gignac Lets take a look at some of the other players and their stats over their careers<br><p> < wpparagraph > < wplist > <ul><li>Cabinho has over 300 goals in his 12 years playing Mexican football<li><li>Cardozo has 249 goals in

wpparagraph > < wpparagraph > <p>So the next question is how did Gignac get here <p> < wpparagraph > < wpparagraph > <p>In 2015 Tigres took a leap of faith and signed Gignac onto their team European players dont typically play in Liga MX especially in their prime time so Gignac was definitely one to look out for Many people were hesitant about the choice but it seems to have paid off<p> < wpparagraph > < wpparagraph > <p>From the beginning of his career at Liga MX Gignac had made a huge mark on the league In the 6 years since Gignac has made history for Tigres and the team has become as strong and successful as ever Gignac has truly shaped Tigres into the killer team they are today Since joining Tigres Gignac has led the team in winning the following Championship titles<p> < wpparagraph > < wplist > <ul><li>1X Campeones Cup<li><li>1X Mexican Clausura Championship<li><li>4X Liga MX Championships<li><ul> < wplist > < wpparagraph > <p>With 6 championship titles under their

wpparagraph > < wpparagraph > <p>As Gignac has become the all time leading goal scorer in the club with 145 goals there was no doubt that their dreams of capturing the CCL crown were well within their reach Since Gignac had already led Tigres to the finals 3 times in 4 seasons it seemed obvious he would assist in a win for the CCL Many fans speculated that he would win the title for Tigres <p> < wpparagraph > < wpparagraph > <p>So did Gignac lead the Tigres in their ultimate goal of winning the CONCACAF Champions League crown<p> < wpparagraph > < wpparagraph > <p>You bet he did The fourth time was the charm and the Tigres had won their first CCL crown With a 2 1 victory over Los Angeles FC the Tigres had once again made history Gignac had scored both goals in winning the CCL title and by the time Gignac finishes his career he may just become the GOAT <p> < wpparagraph > < wpparagraph > <p>Just moments after taking the dub Gignac exclaimed We finally won that fcking cup No Mexican team had ever won this championship so as Gignac led the team to victory he not only created history for Tigres but paved his way to the legend he has become <p> < wpparagraph > < wpimage
