The Supercopa MX (English: Supercup MX) is a Mexican football championship contested by the winners of the Apertura and Clausura Copa MX. The winners qualify as Mexico's third berth into the following year's Copa Libertadores, entering in the first stage of the tournament.

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]
