Gold Cup Showdown: Mexico’s Path Clears Amidst U.S. and Canada Star Power Drought—Who Will Rise?
But no guest nation (or indeed, anyone other than Mexico, the USA or Canada) has ever lifted the trophy, and Saudi Arabia are the latest newbies to try their luck.
The fact that they only reached the last 16 at last year’s Asia Cup, also going down to Oman in the 2024-25 Gulf Cup, does not bode well for their chances.
They will be without Salem Al-Dawsari – the hero of their 2022 World Cup upset of Argentina – due to Al-Hilal’s Club World Cup participation, meaning he will have to wait to bring up his century of caps.
