From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The CONCACAF Nations League is an international football competition contested by the senior men's national teams of the member associations of CONCACAF, the regional governing body of North America, Central America, and the Caribbean. The tournament takes place on dates allocated for international friendlies on the FIFA International Match Calendar. A one-time qualifying tournament took place from September 2018 to March 2019 and the inaugural tournament began in September 2019. The teams are divided into three leagues of four groups, from League A to League C. The winners of each group from League A get to play the Finals, constituted of the semi-finals, a third-place play-off, and the final.
