In the Santos 0-0 Tigres match on August 29, the red card for Fernando Gorriarán in the 85th minute left a very clear calculation: Santos needed to go for the two extra points from a win and Tigres had more reason to protect the one they already had. Here the rule of a point for a draw usually cools the closing stage for the team with ten, because the first risky pass can cost everything; I would have taken the risk on Santos's side.

En el Santos 0-0 Tigres del 29 de agosto, la expulsión de Fernando Gorriarán al 85 dejó una cuenta clarísima: Santos debía ir por los dos puntos extra de la victoria y Tigres tenía más motivo para cuidar el que ya llevaba. Ahí la regla del punto por empate suele enfriar el cierre para el equipo con diez, porque el primer pase arriesgado puede costar todo; yo habría cargado el riesgo del lado de Santos.

I don’t see it as that automatic: even with Santos forced to look for the win, a first direct pass from Tigres could have been the safest outlet if the receiver had close support to return the ball or maintain continuity. Without knowing who was receiving and how far their support was, protecting the point does not necessarily equate to prolonging possession.

No lo veo tan automático: aun con Santos obligado a buscar la victoria, un primer pase directo de Tigres podía ser la salida más segura si el receptor tenía apoyo cercano para devolver o dar continuidad. Sin saber quién recibía y a qué distancia estaban sus apoyos, cuidar el punto no equivale necesariamente a prolongar la posesión.
