The 2015 CONCACAF Gold Cup final decided the winners of the 2015 CONCACAF Gold Cup. It was held on July 26, 2015, at Lincoln Financial Field in Philadelphia, and contested by Jamaica and Mexico.[1][2] It was Jamaica's first final of a CONCACAF championship, and Mexico's 12th; they won a record 10th with a 3–1 victory.[3] It was also the first Gold Cup Final since 2003 not to feature the United States.
Mexico advanced to a one-match play-off, which was held on October 10, 2015, against the 2013 CONCACAF Gold Cup winners, the United States, for the opportunity to represent CONCACAF in the 2017 FIFA Confederations Cup in Russia.[4]
