CONCACAF League: Walter Ferretti and Herediano Advance To Quarterfinals

The CONCACAF League's opening round continued on Wednesday with two games.

At Alajuela, Costa Rica (due to continued security concerns over civil unrest in Nicaragua):

After taking game two of their series with visiting Club Franciscian 1-0 in regulation and squaring their series at 1-1 on aggregate, and with overtime dispensed with, Danilo Zuniga, Ervin Aguirre, Denis Espinoza, and Maykei Montiel all converted their spot kicks as Walter Ferretti won the penalty-kick shootout 4-1 to advance to the quarterfinals.

At San Salvador, El Salvador:

Yendrick Ruiz scored the series-winning goal in the 41st minute as Herediano, despite dropping a 2-1 game-two road decision to Santa Tecla, still won their series on away goals with the aggregate score at 2-2.
