Defending Gold Cup champions Mexico, were drawn into a rough Group A alongside Costa Rica, El Salvador and Cuba.
Mexico was drawn in Group A and will be playing a game in the stadium that should be close to a sellout. The United States has a tough group and the most intriguing part of their draw is a match against Canada at Ford Field in Detroit.
Group B seems like the softest, and not just because of the lack of the United States or Mexico’s presence. Honduras is a great team, but they’re not playing the toughest teams from the other tiers.
