The 2025 Concacaf Gold Cup will bring a unique opportunity to the Dominican Republic to reach a good result. The Caribbean side will try and defy their FIFA world ranking.
The 2025 Gold Cup will feature the 16 best national teams in Concacaf to define who rules the region. The Dominican Republic will be participating in the tournament. So there’s no time to wonder, it’s time to figure out what their FIFA world ranking is.
Having escalated two spots since the last ranking, the Dominican Republic is at the 139th spot. They have a total of 1,087.21 points, which marks a +3.85 increase since December 2024.
This puts the Caribbean side as the 15th highest-ranked national team in Concacaf. However, it also puts them dead last regarding their group phase opponents.
Well, now that we’ve mentioned them, let’s talk about the hurdles the Dominican Republic must climb to have a deep run in the tournament. While they sit at 139 in the rankings, Suriname is barely above at 137.
There’s a big leap between those teams and the rest of Group A. Costa Rica is all the way up at the 54th spot in the world rankings. This means there is a substantial difference in results regarding these nations. That is even more the case when you put Mexico into the equation. The Mexican side is 17th in the rankings, establishing themselves as a clear-cut favorite to not only win the group, but the tournament as a whole.
The Dominican Republic rely on two key players to have some sort of success in the Gold Cup. Those are former Real Madrid forward, Mariano Diaz, and former Barcelona full back, Junior Firpo. They both have talent to spare and will hope to guide the national team to their best Gold Cup yet.
