For the second year in a row and fourth out of five, a team of Liga MX stars will be the opponent in the MLS All-Star Game.
MLS announced on Tuesday that the MLS All-Stars will face a team of Liga MX's best on July 23 at Q2 Stadium in Austin, Texas.
The MLS vs. Liga MX format was first introduced in 2021 and 2022, with the MLS All-Stars coming out on top in both matches. The MLS All-Stars then took on Arsenal in 2023, with the Gunners winning 5-0.
Last year, the match returned to its previous format, with Liga MX winning 4-1 at Field in Columbus.
'We are thrilled to once again host Liga MX at the 2025 MLS All-Star Game, showcasing the best talent from our leagues,' said MLS executive vice president Camilo Durana.
'It's an exciting match-up for the first-ever professional All-Star Game played in Austin, bringing a thriving on-field rivalry to the passionate Austin community and to fans around the world watching on MLS Season Pass on the Apple TV app.'
Just like in previous years, a group of MLS All-Stars will face Liga MX stars the night before the match in the All-Star Skills Challenge, which will take place on July 22.
"It is always a great honor for Liga MX to participate in an event like the MLS All-Star Game. It fills us with excitement to return to this stage to showcase the quality of our players and continue to connect with our fans in the United States,' said Liga MX director of operations, competition, and development Francisco Iturbide.
'I know that the All-Star teams of both leagues will offer a great showdown. We look forward to continuing to strengthen our sports rivalry with MLS.'
