Mexico has qualified for the Gold Cup Final for the 11th time and will be seeking its ninth crown. They reached the Final after finishing atop Group B, defeating Honduras 4-0 and Haiti 3-1 before narrowly falling to Qatar 1-0 in their group stage finale. Mexico rebounded in the knockout stage, with a 2-0 quarterfinal win over Costa Rica and a 3-0 triumph over Jamaica in Las Vegas in the semifinals.

Panama has qualified for its third Gold Cup Final (first since 2013) and will be seeking their first title. They previously appeared in the 2005 Final, losing 3-1 in a penalty shootout to the U.S. after a 0-0 draw. Eight years later, in the 2013 Final, Panama narrowly fell 1-0 to the U.S. Panama's path to the 2023 Final began with a first-place finish in Group C, in which they defeated Costa Rica and Martinique by identical 2-1 scorelines before closing the group stage with a 2-2 draw against El Salvador. Panama then earned a commanding 4-0 quarterfinal win against Qatar and beat the United States 5-4 in a penalty shootout in the semifinals in San Diego. 

Our Final will also be available on multiple radio partners, including Futbol De Primera (USA), Teletica Radio (Costa Rica), Monumental (Costa Rica), Deportes Unidos (Costa Rica), Medcom Radio (Panama), TVN Radio (Panama), Emisoras Unidas (Guatemala), La Red (Guatemala) and others.
