Miami (Monday, March 25, 2019) – The Confederation of North, Central America and Caribbean Association Football (Concacaf) today confirmed the sixteen teams that will participate in the 2019 Concacaf Gold Cup, following the conclusion of the Concacaf Nations League Qualifying Round on Sunday. 

After 68 matches of the one-off Concacaf Nations League Qualifying Round, the following top 10 ranked teams have qualified for the 2019 Gold Cup, based on points earned, goal difference and a series of additional tie breaker criteria.  The teams are (in alphabetical order): Bermuda, Canada, Cuba, Curacao, El Salvador, Guyana, Haiti, Jamaica, Martinique and Nicaragua. 

These teams will join Costa Rica, Honduras, Mexico, Panama, Trinidad and Tobago and United States, who have qualified by virtue of having participated in the 2018 FIFA World Cup Hexagonal qualifier round. 

The 2019 Gold Cup will be the biggest-ever edition of the event, with more participating nations (16 up from 12 in 2017), more host countries (three, including first-time matches in Costa Rica and a yet-to-be-named Caribbean nation), and more stadiums (17 up from 14 in 2017, eight of which are in contention to become 2026 FIFA World Cup venues).
