Copa por Mexico

The Copa por México, or Copa Sky for sponsorship reasons, is a friendly tournament created as a warmup for the Clausura 2023 tournament in Liga MX.

The first edition of this tournament came in 2020, when eight teams were included in the competition to bring back football to Mexican audiences after the start of the coronavirus pandemic in March of that year. The winner of that competition was Cruz Azul.

The 2022 edition of the Copa por México will include ten of Liga MX’s teams. The format of the competition was revamped to include more teams and venues, which will feature legendary stadiums from the Mexican circuit such as Estadio Jalisco (located in Guadalajara), Estadio Nemesio Díez in Toluca, Estadio Universitario from Nuevo León, and the Estadio Olímpico Universitario in Mexico City.

All ten teams were divided in two groups of five, with the winner of each group going on to play for the title. The competition will be held from December 12 to December 30, 2022.
