NEW YORK AND MEXICO CITY (August 29, 2025) – Latin pop star Mario Bautista will perform the official Leagues Cup anthem, “Nuestros Colores,” live in stadium just before kickoff at the 2025 Leagues Cup Final this Sunday, August 31, when Seattle Sounders FC face Inter Miami CF at Lumen Field in Seattle.
The anthem, produced by Grammy Award winner Emilio Estefan Jr., has been the musical centerpiece of the tournament, featured in-stadium, across broadcast and digital experiences, and on MLS Season Pass via Apple TV. The 2025 remix features Bautista alongside global superstar Taboo of the Black Eyed Peas, Grammy-nominated singer-songwriter Emily Estefan, Emilio Regueira, lead singer of Los Rabanes, and emerging artist Richaelio.
“Soccer and music unite us in the same language: love, passion, and hope. That’s what we’ll be celebrating on Sunday,” said Bautista.
With over 1.5 billion combined streams, 1.6M monthly Spotify listeners, and an audience of more than 20 million followers worldwide, Mario Bautista has established himself as one of the most versatile and influential Mexican singer-songwriters of his generation. Known for blending pop, urban, and regional Mexican sounds, he has delivered fan-favorite hits like “Baby Girl,” “Brindo,” and “Cabrón Yo Puedo,” along with acclaimed albums such as CINCO and FÉNIX — the latter marking a powerful new chapter in his career with its emotional depth and maturity. His collaborative reach includes artists such as Banda El Recodo, Edwin Luna, Piso 21, Austin Mahone, and Deorro, further expanding his presence across genres and borders.
Beyond music, Bautista continues to break new ground as a cultural force and entertainer. He has served on the Miss Universe 2023 Selection Committee, joined Billboard Latin Music Week 2024 as a featured speaker, and most recently stepped into the ring at the Super Nova Boxing match, where he claimed a victorious debut fight — proving his drive and determination extend far beyond the stage.
Seattle and Miami Set to Clash in Leagues Cup Final
The 2025 Leagues Cup Final marks the first official matchup in any competition in over three years between Seattle Sounders FC and Inter Miami CF. Seattle is seeking its first-ever Leagues Cup title, while Miami looks to claim its second championship after winning the inaugural tournament in 2023. Both clubs are competing for the tournament title and a coveted spot in the Concacaf Champions Cup Round of 16.
In Wednesday’s semifinals, Inter Miami CF defeated Orlando City SC 3-1 with a brace from Lionel Messi, while Seattle blanked the LA Galaxy 2-0 behind goals from Pedro de la Vega and Osaze De Rosario.
Due to overwhelming demand, Seattle Sounders FC has expanded capacity at Lumen Field by opening the upper bowl for the final. With over 50,000 tickets sold, the club and its fans have broken the current Leagues Cup single-match attendance record of 50,675 set in 2024.
The Leagues Cup Third Place Match will also take place Sunday, featuring LA Galaxy vs. Orlando City SC at Dignity Health Sports Park in Carson, Calif. All three top finishers in this year’s tournament will earn coveted spots in the 2026 Concacaf Champions Cup, with the champion advancing directly to the Round of 16.
