CONCACAF Gold Cup News

CONCACAFThe CONCACAF Gold Cup is the main national soccer competition of the CONCACAF nations. The participating nations are from North and Central America and from the Caribbean islands. In addition, up to three entrants from the other world football confederations are invited to play in the final tournament. The Gold Cup has been hosted by the United States each time, twice co-hosted with Mexico.

The first CONCACAF Championship was held in 1963 and replaced the CCCF Championship (1941-61), which was for Central American and Caribbean nations only. It lasted until 1971, and from 1973 until 1989 no tournament was held; the top team in World Cup qualifying was considered the CONCACAF champion. In 1991, the championship was reborn as the Gold Cup. Since then, it has been won four times by Mexico, twice by the United States, and once by Canada.

The 2005 CONCACAF Gold Cup was the eighth edition of the Gold Cup, the soccer championship of North and Central America (CONCACAF). It was contested in the United States in July 2005. The United States emerged victorious in the final against an upstart Panama team led by tournament MVP Luis Tejada. After regulation and 30 minutes of extra time ended scoreless, the USA won 3-1 on penalties.
