From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The CONCACAF Gold Cup ( Spanish: Copa de Oro de la CONCACAF) is an association football competition for men's national football teams in North America, Central America, and the Caribbean, governed by CONCACAF. The tournament is held every two years and is used to determine the continental champion; previously, the winner of the competition would also qualify for the now-defunct FIFA Confederations Cup.

The Gold Cup was established in 1991 as the successor to the CONCACAF Championship and has been hosted primarily in the United States. Various tournaments have had eight to sixteen teams, including guest teams from outside the confederation. Each edition begins with a round-robin group stage and culminates in a single-elimination knockout stage. [1] Mexico is the most successful team in the tournament's history, having won nine times, followed by the United States with seven titles and Canada with one. [2]
