León pushed forward after halftime but could not create enough danger. Toluca doubled its advantage in the 69th minute on a counterattack. Viñas started the move, exchanged passes with Roberto Díaz Price inside the area, and finished past the goalkeeper.

León defender Jhohan Romaña was sent off in the 75th minute. Toluca’s Bruno Méndez also received a red card in the 89th. Toluca will play for the title on Sunday against América or Monterrey, who meet in the other semifinal.
