With a 3-0 victory, the New York Red Bulls move past Club Atletico Pantoja on a 5-0 aggregate in the Scotiabank Concacaf Champions League Round of 16 at Red Bull Arena on Wednesday. New York moves on to the SCCL Quarterfinals for the second-straight season and will face Santos Laguna, who advanced on an 11-2 aggregate over CD Marathon.

New York extended their home scoreless streak across all competitions to eight matches and 757 minutes.

New York extended its unbeaten SCCL streak at RBA to nine matches (6-0-3) since Red Bull Arena was constructed in 2010.

Academy product Sean Davis opened up the scoring in the 27th minute as he stood tall in the box and headed his shot to the far post.

Five minutes later, Connor Lade was taken down inside the box to get New York a penalty kick opportunity in the 32nd minute. Daniel Royer lined his shot up and finished to the upper 90 to double the Red Bulls lead.

Holding a 2-0 lead late in the second half, Andreas Ivan intercepted a ball atop the 18-yard box and finished to the far post for New York's third and final goal.

Captain Luis Robles made one save for his second consecutive shutout of the tournament and seventh career SCCL clean sheet.

Ivan recorded his first career goal for New York across all competitions.

Royer recorded his third career SCCL goal, while Davis tallied his second career SCCL goal.

Massapequa, New York, native and 2019 MLS SuperDraft Second Round Pick Sean Nealis entered in the 54th minute to make his professional debut.
