Atlas wins first Liga MX title since 1951

History has been made as Atlas won their first title since 1951 after a 1-0 win over Leon in regulation forced a penalty kick shootout in which they won 4-3. Atlas gets their first title in 70 years, their second ever in club history. They got a deserved win after being the clearly dominant team, pushed by a passionate fan base however with some plays that might have been seen as controversial. Leon gave a good performance up until they got scored on, and with their plan out the window, they never were able to get back into the match.
