Maybe I shouldn't have changed my mind about New England's chances. New England and Alajuelense drew 0-0 in Bermuda, which should give LDA an advantage going into the return leg. I just don't see New England winning in Costa Rica (unless they want to play for penalties).
Toluca is leading Olimpia 1-0 at the 50 minute mark, and Portmore Utd plays América later.
I'll try to update this post throughout the evening.
UPDATE (10:22pm): Toluca scored a goal in second-half stoppage time to complete a 2-0 victory over Olimpia. That should wrap up the tie. Maybe Olimpia should have played their home match outside the country -- Honduran teams seem to play better on the road.
In the late match, América leads Portmore Utd 2-1.
UPDATE (11:00pm): The match ended 15 minutes ago; América defeated Portmore Utd 2-1. They should be the odds-on favorite to advance to the semifinals.
