CONCACAF Champions League Review: Toronto, New York Red Bulls into semis

Toronto edged past Tigres UANL to reach the CONCACAF Champions League semifinals, while the New York Red Bulls also advanced on Tuesday.

MLS Cup champion Toronto suffered a 3-2 loss in the second leg in Mexico, but it was enough to get through on away goals after a 4-4 draw on aggregate.

Holding a 2-1 lead from the home leg, Toronto's advantage was extended when Rafael Carioca turned a Sebastian Giovinco pass into his own net in the 64th minute.

Eduardo Vargas scored a much-needed goal for the home side just five minutes later, but the Liga MX club's chances took a blow thanks to a moment of Giovinco brilliance.
