Pachuca 3 (8), Toluca 1 (2): finishing the play

We already knew it back on Thursday night upon the conclusion of the first leg, but I have to say it just because of it becoming official last night: Pachuca are the Apertura 2022 Liga MX champions. They are the fairest and most deserving winners, outplaying all three of their rivals faced in the playoffs, as well as having yet another stellar regular season performance following their league-leader performance from last season, despite losing the final to Atlas.

It was a continuation of the first leg match, with Pachuca dominating chance creation and overall approaches. Overwhelming is the word that best fits what Tuzos were to the Diablos Rojos during the entire 180 minutes of the series.
