This is what happened in the park.

Columbus crew 2-1 Lafc

Despite being late in three on aggregate, Columbus started the match clearly under tension, and they made hay in 10 minutes when Jacen Russell-Rowe opened the scoring.
It went from good to big minutes of half -time when Diego Rossi reduced the advance of Lafc to one of the penalty – the return was indeed lit.
The crew looked all except nailed to pull the level in the second half, and they might have had when Max Arfsteten pulled a shot from the range at close range at the back, but Hugo Lloris succeeded in a superb backup to keep his side.

After Carlos Rodríguez broke the deadlock in a first close first half to give Cruz Azul the advance on the whole, the Star of Seattle, Paul Arriola, took place with what seemed to be a serious knee injury.
To make matters worse, the Sounders, Jordan Morris drink with a deep injury in the second half, a few minutes before Ángel Sepúlveda put the hosts two from the front of the square.
