Very limited number of tickets available online only; No tickets will be available at the stadium box office

Miami, FL (Sunday, July 18, 2021) – Concacaf has announced that a capacity crowd is expected at the Gold Cup Group A Mexico vs El Salvador match today, to be played at the historic Cotton Bowl in Dallas. 

Fans who have not yet secured tickets are urged not to approach the stadium today, as tickets will not be on sale at the stadium box office. As of this time, a very limited number of tickets are only available online, via GoldCup.org. 

Fans who have already purchased tickets and plan to attend the match, scheduled to kickoff at 9 P.M. local time, are encouraged to arrive early to the Cotton Bowl to avoid traffic and long waits, and enjoy the Fan Zone presented by Toyota. 

This announcement follows the news of several Gold Cup matchdays being officially sold out, including matches at BBVA Stadium in Houston and Children’s Mercy Park in Kansas City, as well as the Final at Allegiant Stadium in Las Vegas, which sold out in only 90 minutes – the fastest sellout in tournament history.

Tickets for tonight’s other Group A match, being played simultaneously at Toyota Stadium and featuring Guatemala vs Trinidad and Tobago – as well as all other Gold Cup group stage and knockout round matches – are still available by visiting GoldCup.org. 

The 2021 Gold Cup will be broadcast live through the Confederation’s partner networks, including Fox Sports (USA-English), Univision (USA-Spanish), OneSoccer (Canada), Televisa (Mexico-Spanish), Futbol de Primera (USA-Spanish Radio), Teletica and Repretel (Costa Rica), Medcom and TVN (Panama), TCS (El Salvador), Televicentro (Honduras), ESPN (Central America), Flow Sports (Caribbean) and other local partners in the Caribbean, Central America and the world.

2021 is Concacaf’s 60th anniversary year and the Gold Cup is its flagship men’s competition. The first edition was played in 1991 and the 2021 edition will be the 16th Concacaf Gold Cup. Mexico is the most successful team in Gold Cup history with eight Gold Cup titles, followed by the USA with six and Canada with one. The current Gold Cup champion is Mexico who lifted the Cup in 2019 after defeating the US Men’s National Team 1-0 in a hard-fought final at Chicago’s Soldier Field.
