The 2025 Liga MX Femenil All-Star Game was a women's football exhibition match in Mexico. It featured an all-star team from Liga MX Femenil facing Liga F club FC Barcelona at Estadio Universitario in Monterrey, Nuevo León on 22 August 2025.
Background
On 21 July 2025, Liga MX Femenil and Barcelona announced that as part of Barcelona’s pre-season summer tour in Mexico, the Spanish club would face a Liga MX Femenil All-Stars team composed of 30 players at Estadio Universitario in the city of Monterrey on 22 August 2025. For Barcelona, this was their third visit to the country since their first visit in 2023. According to Liga MX Femenil president, Mariana Gutierrez, this game represented a major milestone in the internationalization of Women's football in Mexico, and that the league worked along with the Mexican Football Federation and commercial partnerts to make the match a reality.
Squads The Liga MX Femenil All-Stars roster was composed of 30 players that were selected based on performance metrics from the 2024–25 Liga MX Femenil season, with each team in the league providing at least one player to the roster. The four players that were candidates to the 2024–25 best-of-the-season awards were automatically added to the roster. 21 players were selected by the manager of the team, and three other players were selected by fans through an online voting process–the list of players that could be voted was created by the manager in conjunction with the league. Finally, the two remaining players were selected as “surprises” entirely by the league. The first 25 players were announced on 21 July 2025.
Tigres’s Pedro Martínez Losa and his technical team were appointed to coach the team after the top-three choices: Óscar Torres (Pachuca), Amelia Valverde (Monterrey), and Ángel Villacampa (America) declined the offer due to scheduling conflicts, as their respective teams had CONCACAF W Champions Cup games scheduled just a few days prior to the match, and Tigres was the fourth-best ranked team in the general standings of the Liga MX Femenil 2024–25 season.
On 30 July 2025, Liga MX Femenil announced that Anika Rodríguez, Diana García, and Scarlett Camberos were joining the roster after winning most of the fan votes. The league later revealed that Jenni Hermoso and Alicia Cervantes would complete the roster, with both been selected by the league as “distinguished” players. +2025 Liga MX Femenil All-Stars rosterPos.Nat.PlayerClubSelection ProcessGKEsthefanny BarrerasPachuca2024–25 best goalkeeper award winnerGKBlanca FélixChivas2024–25 best goalkeeper award candidateGKValeria ZárateAtlético San LuisManagerDFAndrea PereiraPachucaManagerDFMichel FongTijuanaManagerDFGreta EspinozaTigres UANLManagerDFDeneisha BlackwoodUNAMManagerDFJulitha SinganoFC JuárezManagerDFAnika RodríguezTigres UANLFan votingDFNicolette HernándezAmérica ManagerMFAlice SotoMonterreyManagerMFKarla NietoPachucaManagerMFLizbeth OvalleTigres UANL2024–25 best player award candidateMFAmandine HenryTolucaManagerMFDiana GarcíaMonterreyFan votingMFIrene GuerreroAméricaManagerMFCarolina JaramilloChivasManagerMFRuth BravoLeónManagerMFJoselyn SolísPueblaManagerMFDominica RodríguezSantos LagunaManagerMFBrenda CerénAtlasManagerMFScarlett CamberosAméricaFan votingFWCharlyn CorralPachuca2024–25 best player award winnerFWStephanie RibeiroUNAMManagerFWAerial ChavarinCruz AzulManagerFWVictoria CeceñaQuerétaroManagerFWSinoxolo CesaneMazatlánManagerFWJenni HermosoTigres UANLSelected by the league as distinguished playersFWAlicia CervantesChivas Manager: Pedro Martínez Losa
