A draw will be conducted to determine Montréal's opponents in the quarters.

Former Harambee Stars skipper Victor Wanyama will grace the quarter-finals of the CONCACAF Champions League with Club de Foot Montréal after their 3-0 pummeling of Santos Laguna with his compatriot Magnus Breitenmoser featuring for AC Oulu in Finland.

Victor Wanyama

The 30-year-old was trusted with another start by Club de Foot Montréal head coach Wilfried Nancy in the clash against Mexican side Santos Laguna in the Champions League.

Montréal were out to overturn a 1-0 deficit suffered in the first leg and had the perfect start to the game when Rommel Quioto received a pass from Mathieu Choinière to round the keeper and slot the ball home from a tight angle.

Quioto turned provider for the second goal as he laid the ball for Mihailovic Djordje who fired the ball into the roof of the net in the 22nd minute to take the lead in the tie for the first time.

Another well-worked goal was on show for the Montréal fans as Mihailovic played a cut back to Ismael Kone who thumped the ball home to hand the Canadian side a commanding lead in the clash.

Montréal held on for the 3-0 win to progress to the quarter-finals where a draw will be conducted to determine their opponents.

Magnus Breitenmoser

The Kenyan midfielder started for AC Oulu in the 3-0 thumping at the hands of KuPS in the Finnish League Cup.

Janis Ikaunieks notched a hat-trick in the clash to send Oulu crashing out of the League Cup in the Group Stages of the tournament.
