HERRIMAN, Utah; NEW YORK and MEXICO CITY (Tuesday, February 11, 2025) – In conjunction with the Leagues Cup Organizing Committee, Real Salt Lake today announced that legendary North American power and reigning Liga MX champion Club América will visit RSL’s Sandy venue, America First Field, on Wednesday, July 30, for the first time since 2009.
As part of the trio of Liga MX opponents which visit America First Field for Phase One of this summer’s Leagues Cup 2025, Club América is joined by both Atletico San Luis (Saturday, August 2) and Queretaro (Wednesday, August 6) to compete on the Wasatch Front.
Leagues Cup ticketing information at America First Field for 2025 RSL Season Ticket Members will be communicated in the near future, with the individual ticket on-sale date or each of RSL’s Phase One 2025 Leagues Cup matches will be announced soon.
Further information on each match can be found at www.RSL.com or www.LeaguesCup.com.
CLUB AMERICA enters this summer’s tourney as one of six Liga MX sides with hosting privileges, despite traveling to Sandy to face Real Salt Lake in its initial contest. Club América visited the Sandy site once known as Rio Tinto Stadium once previously, back in the 2009 Xango Cup, RSL winning 1-0 in a July friendly on the back of a Javier Morales goal.
ATLETICO SAN LUIS arrives to face RSL for the first time ever, the latest of 12 Mexican sides to square off against Real Salt Lake in friendly or international competition. Former RSL player Anderson Julio once called San Luis home, prior to arriving in Utah via loan in 2021 and then on permanent transfer a year later.
QUERETARO also makes its maiden visit to Utah, as RSL looks to improve upon its all-time 4W-6L-3T record against Liga MX competition. Former RSL midfielder Luis Gil called Queretaro home from 2016-17, as did former RSL forward Rubio Rubin in 2024.
Now in its third edition, Leagues Cup 2025 will once again award three spots in the 2026 CONCACAF Champions Cup, where the winner will represent the region at FIFA international club competitions.
RSL learned this year’s slate roughly two weeks after learning the new and enhanced format for its participation in this summer’s Leagues Cup 2025, which will feature exclusively Inter-League matches between Major League Soccer (MLS) and LIGA MX clubs, in both the Phase One and Quarterfinal stages.
The official 2025 Leagues Cup tourney, sanctioned by CONCACAF with games to be played in the United States and Canada, will kick off later this year on Tuesday, July 29, and run through the Leagues Cup Final on Sunday, August 31, crowning the top club amongst the two premier North American soccer leagues.
