CONCACAF Champions League: Santos, Red Bulls, Striped Gang Advance To Quarterfinals

Three games were contested as the opening round of the CONCACAF Champions League continued.

At Torreon, Mexico:

Marlos Moreno opened the scoring in the 19th minute as Santos Laguna destroyed visiting CD Marathon 5-0 in game two to finish their two-match fist-beating of the Honduran club 11-2 on aggregate.

At Harrison, New York:

Sean Davis (27'), Daniel Royer (PK-32'), and Andreas Ivan (75') each scored once as the New York Red Bulls dominated visiting Atletico Pantoja 3-0 in game two and finished off the club from the Dominican Republic 5-0 on aggregate.

At Guadalupe, Mexico:

Nicolas Sanchez scored the only goal of both the match and series with his successfully-converted penalty kick in the 86th minute as Monterrey defeated visiting Alianza 1-0 in game two and by that same score on aggregate to advance to the quarterfinals.
