Over the past ten months, COVID-19 has had its way with humanity and brought a new definition to how amateur and professional sports are played.
FIFA and Concacaf have altered 2020 schedules for both women’s and men’s national teams numerous times since the pandemic broke out. The pandemic nixed numerous friendlies, both the U-23 2020 Olympics qualifiers and summer Olympics play in Japan, the conclusion of the inaugural Concacaf Nations League tourney, and the start of the senior men’s Qatar 2022 World Cup Gold Cup qualifiers.
In early September, Concacaf announced that it intended to suspend all competitions during the month of October.
