FC Dallas learns CONCACAF Champions League group

FC Dallas learned they will play Real Esteli (Nicaragua) and C.D. Suchitepéquez (Guatemala) in Group H in the 2016-17 CONCACAF Champions League after the draw concluded tonight.

It's the second appearance for FCD after competing in the 2011-12 campaign and not making it past the group stage.

Teams play each other twice (home/away) in the group stage and the top team from each group advances to the quarterfinals.

The Group Stage begins play in August and wraps up in October, and the knockout rounds begin in early 2017. Each phase of the knockout rounds consists of a two-leg home-and-away series.
