Toluca have been crowned champions of Liga MX after beating Club América in La Gran Final Sunday evening, ending a 15-year title drought.
Scorers: Garcia 65′, Vega 82′ (P)
After a scoreless first-leg in Mexico City, the second remained just as tense at the Nemesio Díez.
But the roof was nearly lifted off of the place past the hour mark when Luan Garcia rose above the América defense to head home the opening goal on the night, and in the tie.
A late Alexis Vega penalty was the icing on the cake for Toluca as they wrapped up their first Liga MX title in 15 years.
Meanwhile, Club América were denied becoming just the second side in Liga MX history to lift the title in four times in a row.
