Matching 3-0 wins in the last round of games in Group B sent the USA and Panama through to the quarterfinals. Both teams can thank players with connections to the New York Red Bulls for their most recent success. Michael Amir Murillo - currently attached to RBNY - scored Panama's first goal. Matt Miazga - a product of the Red Bulls Academy and key to the team lifting the 2015 Supporters' Shield in MLS - bagged the USA's last goal of the group stage.
If they can each win their respective quarterfinals, Panama and the USA will see each other again in the semifinals.
