Concacaf Statement – Discriminatory chants during CNL Semifinal
Concacaf strongly condemns the discriminatory chanting by some fans during the 2023 Concacaf Nations League Semifinal match between Mexico and the United States.
Chants heard during the game led to the activation of the anti-discrimination protocol by the match officials. Additionally, security staff ejected several fans for engaging in unacceptable behavior in the stadium.
These incidents were extremely disappointing and tarnished what should have been a positive occasion to showcase high quality football in our region.
The Confederation is in the process of urgently establishing further details and reports from security and match officials and will make a further statement in short order.
