Supercopa MX was a professional association football competition in Mexico and a domestic super cup contested by two clubs: the Copa MX champions of the Apertura and Clausura tournaments. In 2014 and 2015, the winners also qualified for the Copa Libertadores as Mexico-3.
The trophy was held six editions. The inaugural edition was contested in 2014, with Morelia crowned as the first champions. The final edition was contested in 2019, with Cruz Azul crowned as the last champions.
Six clubs won the title at least once. Morelia, Necaxa, Puebla, Guadalajara, Querétaro and Cruz Azul were the most successful clubs with one title each.
History On 20 June 2014, it was announced the two Copa MX champions would face each other in a two legged home and away matches and the winners would receive a new trophy named Supercopa MX.
The 2015 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.
On 20 May 2019, it was announced that the Copa MX would be held once a year (July–April), according to the FIFA world football calendar and the Supercopa MX was abolished.
Competition format The Copa MX champions of the Apertura and Clausura tournaments qualified directly for the Supercopa MX, unless either of the two qualifying clubs also won the Liga MX Apertura or Clausura tournament in the same season, in which case they qualified directly for the Campeón de Campeones and did not compete in the Supercopa MX, since both trophies were contested in the same day prior to the start of the new Liga MX season.
The previous year's Supercopa MX champions were the clubs that replaced those ineligible to compete for the trophy. If the Supercopa MX title holders was also one of the clubs that qualified for the Campeón de Campeones, then the club with the most points in the annual accumulated table of the Copa MX would compete for the trophy.
