Back in May, Concacaf announced that Lincoln Financial Field is to be one of the host venues for next year's Gold Cup. This week, the regional soccer governing body confirmed which games the Linc will host: a quarterfinal doubleheader on June 30.
The 2019 Gold Cup will be the fourth edition of the tournament to come to Philadelphia. Lincoln Financial Field hosted quarterfinal doubleheaders in 2009 and 2017, drawing crowds of more than 31,000 each time. The venue also hosted the 2015 championship game, which attracted a sellout crowd of 68,930 — the largest attendance for a soccer game in the city's history.
