Juan Carlos Osorio has been suspended following the FIFA Confederations Cup for acting aggressively towards FIFA officials, FIFA announced on Friday.

Should Mexico not play deep into the Gold Cup and all six matches aren't served, Osorio will serve the rest of his suspension during Team Mexico's next official matches. Osorio was also officially warned and received a fine for his actions.

The Gold Cup begins on Friday. The United States is scheduled to begin their tournament run on Saturday, taking on Panama in Group B action. Mexico's debut is slated for Sunday against El Salvador.
