When was the last time the USA won the Gold Cup? How many times have they won?
Mexico is the Concacaf Gold Cup defending champion. The USA soccer team has not won the Gold Cup since 2017, but are strong favourites for this years title.
This year is the Gold Cup's 60th anniversary, and it will be held and hosted in 10 cities and at 11 stadiums throughout the United States.
Mexico has won the Gold Cup more than any other country, having won eight Gold Cup championships. Unsurprisingly Mexico has qualified for the tournament this year, and due to their strong team and continued success, they have a great shot at taking home the trophy.
The United States Men's soccer team is also a top contender for this year's tournament and certainly has the chance to be the 2021 Gold Cup Champions. With potential MLS players to join the roster such as Goalkeeper Matt Turner (New England Revolution), defender Miles Robinson (Atlanta United) and winger Paul Arriola (D.C. United), the US will have a strong team.
