History

In June 2013 Liga MX president Decio De María announced the winners of Apertura and Clausura Copa MX will face each other and the winner will qualify to the following year's Copa Libertadores as "Mexico 3". [1]

On June 20, 2014 it was announced the two teams would face each other in a two-legged home-and-away series called SuperCopa MX. [2]

The 2015 edition SuperCopa MX was a single match at a neutral venue, Toyota Stadium in Frisco, Texas, United States, making Mexico the fourth nation (after Italy, France and Turkey) and first North American nation to stage its Super Cup abroad. [3]

On May 20, 2019, it was announced that the Copa MX would be held once a year (July–April), and the match is abolished. [4]
