TIJUANA – (Jan. 16, 2015) Club Tijuana earned its first three points of the season with a 1-0 win against Mexican soccer defending champion Club America in a Week 2 match of the LIGA MX 2015 Clausura Friday night at Estadio Caliente.

Colombian striker Dayro Moreno scored the game winner for the Xoloitzcuintles in the 43rd minute. He took a Gabriel Hauche soft header into the penalty area, beat two defenders and sent a blast past Club America goalkeeper Moises Muñoz.

Club Tijuana coached by Daniel Guzman earn three points in the standings of the early season. The Xoloitzcuintles will next travel to Monterrey to face Tigres UANL in a Week 3 match next week.
