Columbus

Soccer

LAFC withstood a furious Columbus Crew rally to reach the 2025 Concacaf Champions Cup quarterfinals Tuesday night at Lower.com Field.

The Black & Gold escaped Columbus with a 2-1 loss in Leg 2, allowing them to advance in the competition with a 4-2 aggregate win in their Round of 16 series.

They’ll face Inter Miami CF or Jamaica’s Cavalier FC in the quarterfinals next month.

Soccer Columbus Crew 2, LAFC 1

The Crew nearly pulled off a comeback for the ages but came up short, largely due to Hugo Lloris.

The legendary French goalkeeper played the hero for LAFC, making two highlight-reel saves – including an incredible goal-line stop – to deny Columbus a series-tying goal after Jacen Russell-Rowe and Diego Rossi struck for the hosts.

Denis Bouanga‘s clinical counterattack finish in second-half stoppage time put the final nail in the Crew’s coffin and secured qualification for LAFC.

Soccer Tigres UANL 3, FC Cincinnati 1

FC Cincinnati wasted an early lead for the second-straight game against LIGA MX powerhouse Tigres UANL, who rallied for a 3-1 (4-2 aggregate) win that eliminated the Orange & Blue.

An 18th-minute golazo from Evander, following a skillful set-up from Luca Orellano, had Cincy thinking of a shock result at Estadio Universitario.

Soccer Cruz Azul 4, Seattle Sounders FC 1

Seattle Sounders FC bowed out of the CCC with a 4-1 loss at LIGA MX’s Cruz Azul, who closed out the series in lopsided fashion after last week’s scoreless Leg 1 draw at Lumen Field.

Second-half substitute Danny Musovski scored the lone tally for the 2022 champions, poking in a loose ball from close range in the 75th minute to make a game of it at the Estadio Olímpico Universitario.

But a late flurry from La Máquina ended all hopes for Seattle, who were dealt an additional blow with injuries to key attackers Jordan Morris and Paul Arriola.
