For the second consecutive year, premier players from Major League Soccer and Mexico’s Liga MX will compete against each other in an All-Star game (Wednesday, 8:30 p.m. ET).
The combined All-Star game is among three tentpole events in the growing relationship between the two leagues, also featuring the Leagues Cup — which will include every team from both leagues in 2023 — and the Campeones Cup — which pits the two leagues’ champions against each other and will be played on Sept. 14 between New York City FC and Atlas at Yankee Stadium.
Minnesota United coach Adrian Heath will be at the helm for the MLS All-Stars, while Atlas’ Diego Cocca will serve as coach of the Liga MX All-Star team.
In 2021, MLS won the All-Star game in a penalty shootout, with Ricardo Pepi (then of FC Dallas) making the decisive kick.
