The Canada men's national soccer team (French: Équipe du Canada de soccer masculin)[3][4][5] represents Canada in international soccer competitions since 1924. They are overseen by the Canadian Soccer Association, the governing body for soccer in Canada. They have been a member of FIFA since 1948 and a member of CONCACAF since 1961.[6]
Their most significant achievements are winning the 1985 CONCACAF Championship to qualify for the 1986 FIFA World Cup[7] and winning the 2000 CONCACAF Gold Cup to qualify for the 2001 FIFA Confederations Cup.[8] Canada is the only national team aside from regional powerhouses Mexico and the United States to win a Gold Cup.[9] Canada also won a gold medal in the 1904 Summer Olympics.[10]
Canada participated in its second World Cup in 2022, is participating in its first Copa América in 2024, and will co-host, along with the United States and Mexico, the 2026 World Cup.
