MONTERREY, Mexico (May 25, 2025)
Gotham FC has achieved a significant milestone by winning the inaugural Concacaf W Champions Cup, a tournament that identifies the leading women’s soccer team across North America, Central America, and the Caribbean. This victory positions Gotham FC as a formidable force in the realm of women’s professional soccer.
Pathway to Global Competitions
This triumph not only marks a historic moment for Gotham FC but also guarantees them a spot in two prestigious upcoming tournaments: the 2026 FIFA Women’s Champions Cup and the inaugural FIFA Women’s Club World Cup scheduled for 2028. These competitions will present Gotham FC with opportunities to face off against some of the largest names in global women’s soccer.
Simultaneous Successes
On the same day, another momentous event transpired in the world of women’s soccer: Arsenal defeated the renowned FC Barcelona in the UEFA Women’s Champions League final. Both Arsenal and Gotham FC have secured their places in the semifinals of the 2026 FIFA Women’s Champions Cup, with Gotham FC set to compete against the winner of this summer’s Copa Libertadores Femenina, emphasizing their readiness for international challenges.
Impressive Club Legacy
Gotham FC, already a prominent name in women’s soccer, continues to elevate its status by securing its second major trophy in less than two years, following its victory in the National Women’s Soccer League (NWSL). This latest accolade enhances the club’s mission to be recognized among the elite in the sport, as they become the first champions of this new regional tournament, which rivals the UEFA Women’s Champions League.
Leadership and Talent
The team, guided by Spanish head coach Juan Carlos Amorós and general manager Yael Averbuch West—an accomplished former NWSL player—boasts a roster featuring World Cup winners, Olympic champions, and celebrated athletes from both European and South American leagues.
Looking Ahead
Gotham FC will resume its NWSL campaign on Saturday, June 7, facing off against the Kansas City Current, the current league leaders. This high-profile match will be broadcast nationally on CBS, further spotlighting the club’s endeavors on the field.
