The CONCACAF–CONMEBOL play-off for the 2016 Summer Olympics was a men's under-23 international football play-off between a team from CONCACAF (North, Central America and Caribbean) and a team from CONMEBOL (South America), with the winner qualifying for the final berth in the 2016 Summer Olympics men's football tournament.

Qualified teams

Matches

Originally qualification was to be decided using a single-leg tie in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil. However, in October 2015, the International Olympic Committee announced that the play-off would be a home and away series. The first leg was hosted by Colombia, while the second leg was hosted by the United States.
