Mexico set to meet Jamaica in Concacaf Nations League quarterfinals

The Reggae Boyz nearly avoided a showdown with El Tri but will once again see familiar Concacaf Nations League foes.

Mexico and Jamaica are set to face off in Concacaf Nations League quarterfinals in November. Jamaica achieved their success by finishing as group runners-up with the fewest points. Mexico, being the top-seeded team according to the rankings as of July 20, 2026, will host the first leg at home, followed by a return leg in Monterrey on November 17.

This marks the first time the two teams are set to meet since the 2022-23 NHL season, with both games concluding in draws. Mexico has gained the upper hand in recent encounters, including a 3-0 victory in the 2023 Gold Cup semifinal and a 3-0 win in a 2024 Copa América group match. The loser of this quarterfinal series will be required to participate in the March 2027 preliminaries to earn a spot in the Continental Championship. The winner advances to the Concacaf Nations League semifinals, scheduled for March 2027.
