The Campeones Cup will write a new chapter in the rivalry between MLS and Liga BBVA with the game between América and Atlanta United. Before the match to be held at Mercedes-Benz Stadium, ESPN Digital presents unforgettable duels that have been celebrated between clubs from both leagues.

Pachuca vs Galaxy

The final of the SuperLiga in 2007 is remembered for the penalty shootout that involved Landon Donovan and the late Miguel Calero. Donovan performed a ritual before taking the shot, which was saved by the remembered Colombian goalkeeper, who made a "no" gesture with his finger. In the end, the Tuzos were crowned, but the action of the 'Cóndor' Calero is one of the most remembered by the fans.

América vs Montreal

The Azulcrema team won the 2015 CONCACAF title by defeating the Canadian team in the second leg of the final. The match ended 4-2 (5-3) in favor of Las Águilas, with Darío Benedetto playing a leading role by scoring a hat-trick.

Toronto vs Tigres

It was one of the best matches of the 2018 CONCACAF edition. The feline team won 3-2, but the away goal left them out. The Canadian team qualified for the next round with a brilliant performance by Italian Sebastian Giovinco.

Monterrey vs Real Salt Lake

The first leg of the CONCACAF final in 2011 was a match full of passion and intensity. Although the team led at that time by Víctor Manuel Vucetich had a 2-0 lead, the American team managed to equalize in the second half.

Chivas vs Toronto

In 2018, Toronto was a nightmare for Mexican teams, eliminating América and Tigres; but in the final, it faced el Rebaño. The two-legged tie ended in a 3-3 draw, so a penalty shootout was necessary. Matías Almeyda's team was decisive and converted their four shots, while Jonathan Osorio and Michael Bradley missed for the Canadian team.
