The CONCACAF Champions Cup tournament has reached the quarterfinals, and Wednesday night will see LAFC and Inter Miami face off for Leg 1 of the competition (they’ll play again next Wednesday too). Whichever team wins the two clashes will face either the Vancouver Whitecaps FC or Pumas UNAM in the semis.
