The excitement of the Liga MX 2025 playoffs has reached a thrilling peak as we finally know the first finalist of the Torneo Clausura. As fans eagerly awaited, the results from today’s matches unveiled that Toluca and América are set to compete for the championship.
Throughout the semifinals, intense matches delivered a rollercoaster of emotions, goals, and some controversial moments. Toluca, under the guidance of coach Antonio Mohamed, secured their spot in the final after displaying dominant performances, particularly in the second leg against Tigres. They will host the final at the Estadio Nemesio Diez, thanks to their position as the overall leader of the tournament.
On the other hand, América, managed by André Jardine, managed to turn around their fortunes after a challenging start and secured their place in the final despite losing the first leg against Cruz Azul. Their resilience paid off as they clinched two crucial goals, finishing in second place in the overall standings.
As it stands, the Liga MX 2025 final will feature Toluca against the winner of the remaining semifinal match, which sees Cruz Azul holding a slight advantage. With the first leg of the final scheduled for Thursday, May 22, and the return leg on Sunday, May 25, the anticipation is building.
The last time Toluca lifted the Liga MX trophy was in 2010 during the Bicentenario tournament, where they triumphed against Santos in a nail-biting penalty shootout. Their return to the final now puts them on the brink of reclaiming their former glory.
With the second finalist set to be confirmed on the evening of May 18, 2025, all eyes are now on the upcoming matches as fans count down to the exhilarating championship showdown.
