Cyle Larin Gold Cup

ORLANDO – June 23, 2015 – Orlando City SC forward Cyle Larin has been named to the Canadian Men's National Team's 23-man roster for the 2015 CONCACAF Gold Cup.


After recently securing a pair of FIFA World Cup qualifying victories against Dominica, Larin and the CMNT will begin their quest for the team's first-ever Gold Cup title against fellow Lion Darwin Cerén and El Salvador on Saturday, July 8, at the StubHub Center in Carson, California.


Following the El Salvador fixture, Canada will head to Houston, Texas, to face Jamaica on Saturday, July 11, before taking on Costa Rica in Toronto on July 14.


Larin's current goal-scoring form for Orlando City has continued at the international level as of late – with the 20-year-old recently becoming the first Canadian player since Dwayne DeRosario, Canada's all-time leading scorer, to score three goals in as many games.


The number one overall Major League Soccer (MLS) SuperDraft selection has scored five goals in nine starts for Orlando City.
