ARLINGTON, Texas — Both the United States and Mexico will play matches at AT&T Stadium in Arlington this summer as part of the 2025 CONCACAF Gold Cup.
Mexico, also known as “El Tri,” will play in Arlington first among the two nations, facing off against Suriname on Wednesday, June 18. The U.S. men’s national soccer team (USMNT) will take on Haiti later in the week on Sunday, June 22.
The CONCACAF Gold Cup groups were drawn on Thursday and the group stage schedules were released on Friday.
The USMNT will open the tournament against Trinidad and Tobago on June 15 at San Jose, Calif., then play Saudi Arabia four days later in Austin before rounding out group play in Arlington. Mexico starts group play at SoFi Stadium in Inglewood, Calif., against Dominican Republic, then head to Jerry World for the Suriname match and wrap up group play against Costa Rica at Allegiant Stadium in Las Vegas.
Here is the complete CONCACAF Gold Cup schedule for AT&T Stadium:

The U.S. has won its group in 16 of 17 Gold Cups, along with a second-place finish to Panama in 2011. Its group stage record is 40 wins, one loss and five draws.
These will be the last competitive matches for U.S. coach Mauricio Pochettino’s team before its World Cup opener on June 12, 2026.
Sending a second-string team for the second straight Gold Cup, the U.S. lost a 2023 semifinal to Panama on penalty kicks.
Canada will start Group B against Honduras on June 17 at Vancouver, British Columbia, play Curaçao four days later at Houston and close the first round against El Salvador on June 24 at Houston.
Panama will begin Group C against Guadeloupe on June 16 at Carson, California, face Guatemala four days later at Austin and close the first round against Jamaica on June 24 at Austin.
CONCACAF said quarterfinal doubleheaders will be on June 28 at Glendale, Arizona, and the following day in Minneapolis, and semifinals on July 2 at St. Louis and Santa Clara, California, but sites of specific knockout rounds matchups will not be announced until after the first round. It said in October that Houston will host the championship on July 6.
The tournament will be played at the same time as the FIFA Club World Cup, which has been given priority for players by FIFA. Gold Cup matches will be played at 14 stadiums in 11 areas, avoiding the Eastern seaboard.
Mexico has won nine Gold Cups and the U.S. seven. Canada won in 2000.
