At San Nicolas de los Garza, Mexico:
Andre-Pierre Gignac (18'), Geferson (OG-40'), and Egidio Arevalo Rios (55') provided the scoring on Wednesday as Tigres overcame their series-opening defeat with a 3-1 game-two home victory over Internacional and won their Copa Libertadores semifinal series 4-3 on aggregate.
The Mexican club will host the opening match of the Copa Libertadores Final against River Plate next Wednesday, with the return contest set for August 5 at Buenos Aires.
Since a club from a non-CONMEBOL country (Mexico, a member of CONCACAF) advanced to the final, River Plate, as the highest-finishing South American club, will represent CONMEBOL in December's FIFA Club World Cup, set to take place in Japan.
