Concacaf Champions Cup: Inter Miami, Columbus Crew, New England reach quarterfinals


It’s been smooth sailing for New England, earning a 4-0 aggregate win over CA Independiente (Panama) in Round One before securing a 5-1 aggregate win over Alajuelense (Costa Rica) in the Round of 16.

But now the difficulty level rises considerably for head coach Caleb Porter’s team, with Club América fresh off winning a two-part El Súper Clásico vs. Chivas Guadalajara 5-3 on aggregate in the Round of 16.

The Revs bring firepower with Golden Boot co-leader Tomás Chancalay (four goals) and star No. 10 Carles Gil, but their Liga MX powerhouse opponent is loaded with Álvaro Fidalgo, Diego Valdés, Henry Martín and more.

Winner faces: Herediano (Costa Rica) or Pachuca (Mexico)
