That decision, however, was overtun by a Video Review, a first of this kind in a CCL game, and the red card was replaced by a yellow instead.<\/p>\n<div class=\"oc-c-body-part oc-c-body-part--text \">\n<p>Relieved, that he stayed on the pitch, Gignac\u00a0 tried to make up for his nearly costly error, as he forced Orlando goalkeeper Pedro Gallese into a diving stop in the 53rd minute. Two minutes later, Gallese had to parry a Fernando Gorriar\u00e1n shot off the crossbar away and then stretched out to deny a downward header by Samir.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"oc-c-body-part oc-c-body-part--text \">\n<p>Martin Ojeda had Orlando\u2019s best scoring chance in the second half, as a left-footed shot from just outside the box prompted a diving save from Tigres goalkeeper Nahuel Guzman in the 58th minute.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"oc-c-body-part oc-c-body-part--text \">\n<p>Two minutes from full time, Guido Pizarro had Gallese all beaten up, but the headed shot hit the far post following a Tigres corner kick.<\/p>\n<p>The return leg will be played at Orlando City\u2019s Exploria Stadium on 14 March .<\/p>\n<p>Next up for the Tigr\u0435s is a match against Club America on Saturday.
