Concacaf League Week 7 Wrap Up

Down to the semifinals now, which means my job here is much easier. Only two games were played this week, with Olimpia hosting Saprissa and Alianza hosting Motagua. Honduran clubs had a day to celebrate, and it looks like we may be headed for an all-Honduras final. Here's the highlights from the two matches:

Olimpia 2-0 Saprissa


Jorge Benguche's brace meant a great result for Olimpia despite still playing in an empty stadium. Saprissa have the capabilities to turn it around at home, but it won't be easy without an away goal here.

Alianza 1-1 Motagua


Alianza have been relying upon their fantastic home performances to get this far, and now a stumble at Estadio Cuscatlán against their toughest competition yet looks like it will be their undoing. Certainly a lot still to play for next week, but advantage Motagua.
