Liga MX Dominates Leagues Cup Final
6 Sep
Summary
- Toluca and Monterrey will compete in the 2026 Leagues Cup final.
- Both finalists have already qualified for the CONCACAF Champions Cup.
- The final will be streamed on Apple TV, with no US TV broadcast.
The 2026 Leagues Cup final will feature a historic all-Liga MX showdown between Toluca and Monterrey, marking the first time in recent competition history that a Mexican club will lift the trophy. This year's tournament saw a significant shift, with all four semifinalists hailing from Liga MX, as all MLS quarterfinalists were eliminated at that stage.
Both Toluca and Monterrey have already clinched berths in next season's CONCACAF Champions Cup by virtue of reaching the final. However, the ultimate prize includes an advantage in the Champions Cup; the winner will proceed directly to the second round, while the runner-up will face a preliminary first-round match.
The championship match is scheduled to take place at Shell Energy Stadium in Houston, Texas, on Sunday, September 6, with a kickoff time of 8:15 p.m. local time. For audiences in the United States, the final will be available exclusively via live stream on Apple TV, as there will be no television broadcast. Interested viewers can access Apple TV through a free 7-day trial for new subscribers or potentially receive complimentary access with recent Apple device purchases.
