Pachuca dominates Toluca in Liga MX final
The Liga MX final started and Pachuca shows its power, despite starting the series as visitors against Toluca. Before the 15 minutes on the Nemesio Díez Stadium field, Romario Ibarra and Gustavo Cabral appeared to decree the 2-0 partial of the 'Tuzos'.
Around the 8th minute, Erick Sánchez found space to assist Romario Ibarra with a precise low pass, taking advantage of the disorganized defense of the 'Diablos Rojos'. The experienced Ecuadorian forward, despite not having a clear angle towards the goal, managed to take a powerful shot that beat the resistance of goalkeeper Tiago Volpi.
GOOOOAAAL!!!

ROMARIOOO 🔥
He entered the rival's area and with a powerful and crossed shot, he sent the ball into the net.
Shortly after, in the 12th minute, Pachuca had a free kick from the left flank, near the halfway line, and Víctor Guzmán sent in a dangerous cross. Inside the box, after escaping from his marker, Gustavo Cabral only had to deflect the ball slightly to inflate the net and unleash the joy in his team.

THE PREVIEW OF TOLUCA vs. PACHUCA
Toluca improved its football level during the tournament, despite the doubts generated by the poor end to the regular phase: one victory, four draws, and three defeats in the last eight matches. However, coach Ignacio Ambriz knew how to bring out the best version of his players, and the team showcased its offensive power, with Camilo Sanvezzo (three goals) as the main protagonist in the playoffs. Jean Meneses, who has eight goals and four assists this season, is another of the main weapons of the 'Diablos Rojos'.
On the other hand, Pachuca finished in fourth place in the initial stage and has a slight favoritism for the title, after eliminating Tigres and Monterrey. Precisely, the most assertive performance of Guillermo Almada's team was in the first leg against 'Rayados', after the memorable 5-2 victory, with a hat-trick from Nicolás Ibáñez, who has scored 14 goals in the season. The experienced Romario Ibarra and Avilés Hurtado have also been key players for the 'Tuzos'.
