The biennial CONCACAF continental championship sees Mexico defend their Gold Cup title at the 2025 tournament held largely across the western portion of the United States.
Only once in the tournament's history has someone other than USA or El Tri won the title. That was when Canada won in 2000.
This year, the tournament serves as an important line of demarcation for 2026 FIFA World Cup hosts USA, Canada, and Mexico as it presents the final competitive action for all three teams until next summer's main event. The three hosts do not compete in qualifying, meaning they do not have any more matches with competitive stakes until the 2026 competition begins.
The Sporting News brings you a look at the schedule, results, and bracket for the 2025 Gold Cup, hosted as usual in the USA.
