Messi's Miami in Leagues Cup quarters as new format fuels goals, ratings surge

Aug 20 (Reuters) - The Leagues Cup 2025 has reached its quarter-final stage, with four enticing MLS-Liga MX matchups set for Wednesday, showcasing the tournament's revamped format that has seen more goals and boosted commercial interest and fan engagement. Lionel Messi's Inter Miami headline the quarter-final contenders, while Mexican powerhouse Tigres UANL and MLS outfit Seattle Sounders are also among the favourites heading into the last eight. Through Phase One of the tournament, average match viewership reached 1.43 million, up 62% from 2024, across MLS Season Pass, Apple TV+, linear broadcasters in North America, and third-party platforms, organisers told Reuters on Wednesday. Corporate sponsor revenue is up 13% year-on-year, with Walmart and Ocean Spray added as new partners. Digital and social media consumption has also risen sharply, organisers said. On the pitch, the absence of draws and penalty shootouts following 90 minutes has led to an average of 3.37 goals per game. This figure surpasses regular-season scoring rates in MLS, Liga MX and several leading European leagues, according to organisers. "It really starts with the competition and this new format," Leagues Cup executive director Thomas Mayo told Reuters. "The level of play is very high. They're all arm in arm at the penalty shootouts and there's some real emotion. It means a lot to them. It's a tough competition." This year's tournament features all 18 Liga MX teams and 18 qualifying MLS teams and the four quarter-finals will pit MLS clubs against Liga MX opponents, reinforcing the cross-border rivalry at the heart of the competition's redesign. Matches between the two leagues have been closely contested, with points shared evenly between MLS and Liga MX sides. Attendance figures are tracking closely with the 2024 edition, and organisers anticipate good crowds for Wednesday's games. The tournament's stakes are high, with automatic qualification for the Concacaf Champions Cup guaranteed for the winner of the third-place match and both finalists. The champion will secure direct entry into the Champions Cup Round of 16.

Trump has bought more than $100m in bonds while president, disclosure shows

Donald Trump has bought more than $100m in company, state and municipal bonds since taking office in January, according to new disclosures which shed further light on the vast holdings of the US's billionaire president. The forms, posted online on Tuesday, show the Republican former real estate mogul made more than 600 financial purchases since 21 January, the day after he was inaugurated for his second term in the White House. The 12 August filing from the US Office of Government Ethics does not list exact amounts for each purchase, only giving a broad range. They include corporate bonds from Citigroup, Morgan Stanley and Wells Fargo, as well as Meta, Qualcomm, the Home Depot, T-Mobile USA and UnitedHealth Group. Other debt purchases include various bonds issued by cities, states, counties and school districts as well as gas districts, and other issuers. The holdings cover sectors that could benefit from US policy shifts under his administration, such as financial deregulation. A senior White House official said Trump continued to file mandatory disclosures about his investment portfolio but that neither he nor his family had a role in managing or selecting the bonds, which are managed by a third-party financial institution. Federal ethics officials certified the reports, which are in compliance with applicable laws, according to the official, who declined to be named. Trump, a businessperson turned politician, has said he has put his companies into a trust managed by his children. 'President Trump's net worth has increased substantially, with much of that concentrated in crypto holdings and Trump Media. Given that, there is no evidence currently that his bond purchases are anything other than a prudent diversification within his billions of dollars in assets,' said John Canavan, lead US analyst at Oxford Economics. 'It seems like he was primarily purchasing corporate and municipal bonds and others that are high quality and highly rated, so it's just a way to take a little bit of risk off the table,' he said. Trump's annual disclosure form filed in June showed his income from various sources still ultimately accrues to the president – something that has opened him up to accusations of conflicts of interest. In that disclosure, which appeared to cover the 2024 calendar year, Trump reported more than $600m in income from cryptocurrencies, golf properties, licensing and other ventures. It also showed his push into crypto had added substantially to his wealth. Overall, Trump reported assets worth at least $1.6bn, according to a Reuters calculation at the time.
