It was a memorable first Monterrey start for American forward Brandon Vazquez.
Vazquez scored his first goal for the club in a 1-1 Liga MX draw with Queretaro on Wednesday. The former FC Cincinnati and Atlanta United forward started and played 67 minutes in the match as Monterrey continued through the early stages of its Clausura campaign.
Vazquez boosted Monterrey ahead after 41 minutes, heading home Jorge Rodriguez’s cross into the back of the net. It marked Vazquez’s first goal in only his second appearance for the Mexican side.
The 25-year-old was replaced in the 67th minute and was forced to watch Queretaro’s equalizing goal from the bench. Ettson Ayon’s left-footed finish with only seven minutes left to play helped the visitors steal one point at Estadio BBVA.
Vazquez also won two duels and drew one foul in his impactful start for Monterrey.
Monterrey resumes league play on Saturday against Atletico San Luis.
