CANADA SOCCER’S MEN’S NATIONAL TEAM
​PROGRAM

Canada has built plenty of momentum in a
​landmark year for the Men’s National Team Program that will feature a record 19
​international matches including FIFA World Cup Qualifiers and the Concacaf Gold
​Cup. Through 13 October, Canada have played 17 of those matches with a 11-4-2
​record, eight clean sheets and a record 52 goals scored. Canada also set a
​record with eight consecutive wins and reached the Concacaf Gold Cup Semifinals
​for the first time since 2007.

Canada will play eight of their 14 FIFA
​World Cup Qualifiers in the Concacaf Final Round from September through
​November 2021: three matches in September, three matches in October, and two
​matches in November. In 2022, Canada will play three more matches in
​January/February and three more matches in March. Along with Honduras, USA and
​El Salvador, Canada’s other opponents in the Concacaf Final Round are Costa
​Rica, Jamaica, Mexico, and Panama.

To reach the Concacaf Final Round, Canada
​won their First Round group against Aruba, Bermuda, Cayman Islands and
​Suriname, then eliminated Haiti in a head-to-head Second Round series. This
​marks the first time since 1997 that Canada have reached the Concacaf Final
​Round of FIFA World Cup Qualifiers. From the Concacaf Final Round of eight
​nations, the top-three nations automatically qualify for the FIFA World Cup
​Qatar 2022™ and the fourth-best nation advance to an inter-continental playoff
​for additional FIFA World Cup Qatar 2022™ Qualifiers.

Canada Soccer’s Men’s National Team are
​two-time Concacaf champions, previously winning the 1985 Concacaf Championship
​and 2000 Concacaf Gold Cup. This year marked Canada’s 15th participation at the
​Concacaf Gold Cup since 1991. Along with their first-place finish in 2000,
​Canada reached the Semifinals in 2002, 2007, and 2021. Across the past five
​years from 2017 to 2021, Canada are one of only four nations that finished
​top-six across all four Concacaf major tournaments: fifth place in Concacaf
​Nations League A, sixth place at both the 2017 and 2019 Concacaf Gold Cups, and
​a semi-final finish at the 2021 Concacaf Gold Cup.
