MLSsoccer staff

The field is set for the 2015 Gold Cup knockout stage.

Eight teams remain in the running for the CONCACAF championship, with the quarterfinals taking place this weekend. Co-hosts US get the elimination round underway on Saturday, when they host Cuba in Baltimore, followed by a nightcap of Caribbean sides Haiti and Jamaica.

The action continues on Sunday, as surprise Group C winners Trinidad & Tobago get a challenging draw against Panama. And Mexico take on Costa Rica in what may be the match of the round, between a co-favorite heading into the tournament and one of the most popular dark horse candidates to break the US-Mexico stranglehold on the Gold Cup title.
