The wait is over. For nearly a month, the soccer community will be in for a treat with the 2023 Gold Cup, the 17th edition of the Concacaf tournament, which will take place between June 24 and July 16.

This year, 16 teams will battle it out for the regional glory. The United States Men’s National Team aims to make it back-to-back titles, but Mexico will be looking to dethrone them after a painful loss in 2021.

The Gold Cup format consists on a group stage of four zones, with the top two teams advancing to the knockout stages. The one who emerges victorious at the SoFi Stadium on July 16 will get their hands on the coveted trophy.
