Guardianes 2020 Liga MX final phase

The Torneo Guardianes 2020 (stylized as Guard1anes) Liga MX final phase[1] was played between 21 November 2020 to 13 December 2020.[2] A total of 12 teams competed in the final phase to decide the champions of the Guardianes 2020 Liga MX season.[3] For the first time since the Clausura 2008 season, an additional qualifying round, the reclassification or repechaje, was employed, expanding the number of playoff spots from eight to 12.

Due to the COVID-19 pandemic in Mexico, all matches of the final phase, except for the first leg of the quarter-final between Guadalajara and América, were played behind closed doors.[4]

Both finalists qualified to the 2022 CONCACAF Champions League.

Reclassification

[edit]
  • All games were played in a single-leg hosted by the higher seed
  • If a game ended in a draw, it proceeded directly to a penalty shoot-out.

Liguilla

[edit]
  • Teams were re-seeded each round.
  • The winners of the Reclassification matches were seeded based on their ranking in the classification table.
  • Team with more goals on aggregate after two matches advanced.
  • Away goals rule was applied in the quarter-finals and semi-finals, but not the final.
  • In the quarter-finals and semi-finals, if the two teams were tied on aggregate and away goals, the higher seeded team advanced.
  • In the final, if the two teams were tied after both legs, the match went to extra time and, if necessary, a shoot-out.
  • Both finalists qualified to the 2022 CONCACAF Champions League.
