The UNCAF Nations Cup 2009 was the tenth edition of the UNCAF Nations Cup, the biennial football (soccer) tournament for the CONCACAF-affiliated national teams of Central America. The first five places qualified for the 2009 CONCACAF Gold Cup.[1] The event was going to take place in Panama City, Panama between January 22 and February 1, 2009,[2] but the Panamanian FA announced that they would not host the event due to not having an adequate stadium available for the time period of the tournament.[3][4] The alternative hosts were Honduras and Guatemala.[5] Honduras submitted an official replacement bid on November 12, and after some consideration it was moved to Honduras.[3] All games were played in Estadio Tiburcio Carías Andino in Tegucigalpa.[3][6] The tournament was sponsored by Digicel.[7] On 1 February 2009 Panama won the tournament, the first UNCAF Nations Cup win in the country's history.
