Toronto FC to host first Campeones Cup as MLS, Mexico’s Liga MX form partnership

The Star | March 13, 2018

The partnership announced Tuesday will go beyond that single game to include youth competitions, future All-Star games and other events and initiatives.

The Campeones Cup won’t be the first time Toronto FC has played against a team from the Liga MX. Here, TFC midfielder Marco Delgado goes down in front of UANL Tigres midfielder Larry Vasquez during the first half of the CONCACAF Champions League quarterfinal action at BMO field on March 7.

Major League Soccer and Liga MX have joined in a long-term partnership that will launch later this year when reigning MLS Cup champion Toronto hosts a team from Mexico’s top league.
