2019–20 Copa MX
the 82nd staging of the Copa MX
The 2019–20 Copa MX was the 82nd staging of the Copa MX, the 54th staging in the professional era and the fifteenth tournament played since the 1996–97 edition. The tournament started on 30 July 2019 and ended on 4 November 2020.
It marked the first year since it was restored in 2012 that only one tournament will be played in the Mexican football year. In previous years, two tournaments (Apertura and Clausura) were played throughout the year.
América were the defending champions after they defeated Juárez 0–1 in the Clausura 2019 final.
The winners would have qualified for the 2020 Leagues Cup. However, the Leagues Cup was canceled due to the COVID-19 pandemic in North America.
This has also been the latest edition of the tournament, as it suspended play due to the COVID-19 pandemic and the Mexican Football Federation giving preference for matches for the Mexico National Football Team towards the 2022 FIFA World Cup.
Participants
This tournament featured the 15 clubs from Liga MX who did not participate in the 2020 CONCACAF Champions League (América, Cruz Azul, León, and UANL).
The tournament also featured the top 12 Ascenso MX teams of the 2018–19 aggregate table not promoted to Liga MX.
Draw
The draw for the tournament took place on 12 June 2019 in Cancún.
This brief starts where responsible research should: with the source description of “2019–20 Copa MX” as the 82nd staging of the Copa MX. Everything that follows is an evidence route, not borrowed authority.
Why this record matters
The subject matters to the general reference register because the source frames it as the 82nd staging of the Copa MX. Its deeper value depends on whether names, dates, institutions and citations support that framing.
The citation trail is more important than the brevity of the summary: it shows where individual claims can be examined in context. The source revision retrieved here is dated Mar 20, 2026. The linked authority identifier is Q64575058. None of the 0 selected statements returned an explicit reference. The first chronological checks are 2019, 1996, 2020 and 2012.
A concise general-reference account can conceal disagreements about scope, terminology or the weight assigned to individual sources. The source lead contains qualifying language; that uncertainty should survive quotation, summary and reuse. Authority statements aid reconciliation but still require their own references, qualifiers and ranks to be checked.
