The Whitecaps are now undefeated in their last six outings across all competitions and will look to start the MLS campaign with a fourth straight league win when they visit FC Dallas on Saturday.

The Galaxy, who had scored only one goal all season, erupt for a 4-1 second-leg victory over the Costa Rican club and will face Mexico’s Tigres in April.

The Galaxy also got a big game out of goalkeeper John McCarthy, who was the starter last season, winning his second MLS Cup in three seasons. But Vanney went with Novak Micovic in the first three games this year and Micovic was beaten a conference-worst seven times.

The Vancouver Whitecaps toppled a giant on Wednesday. Going up against Spanish superstar Sergio Ramos and his CF Monterrey teammates in a hostile Mexican stadium, the 'Caps knew they were in for a tough test.

The team takes a commanding three-goal lead into the second leg of their series on Tuesday night in Columbus, putting a quarterfinal berth well within reach.

Columbus Crew are in a 3-goal deficit going into the second leg of the two-game series vs LAFC in the CONCACAF Champions Cup round of 16.

There will be no CONCACAF Champions Cup run for the Crew this year. After nearly pulling off a comeback in the second leg of the two-game, round-of-16 series against Los Angeles FC, the Crew were eliminated 4-2 on aggregate (overall goals within series).
