The 2023 CONCACAF Nations League Finals was the final tournament of the 2022–23 edition of the CONCACAF Nations League, the second season of the international football competition involving the men's national teams of the 41 member associations of CONCACAF. The event was held from June 15 to 18, 2023 at the Allegiant Stadium in Paradise, Nevada, United States, and was contested by the four group winners of Nations League A.[1]

The United States defeated Canada 2–0 in the final to secure a second consecutive CONCACAF Nations League title.[2]

Format

The Nations League Finals took place in June 2023 and was contested by the four group winners of League A.

The match was temporarily stopped by the referee in the 90th minute due to homophobic chants from the Mexico fans. The referee initially allotted 12 minutes of stoppage time at the end of regulation, but he halted the match in the eighth minute of stoppage time amid more chants (though CONCACAF claimed the match was halted at the referee's discretion).[8][9][10]
