The draw for the last 16 of Concacaf's Champions League took place in Mexico City on Monday night and there were some appealing fixtures such as LAFC going up against Club Leon. It's arguably the toughest draw for an MLS side. Other matches include Atlanta United vs. Motagua (Honduras) while MLS Cup defending champions Seattle Sounders will also meet a Honduran club in Olimpia. NYCFC - yet to hire a manager after Dome Torrent's departure - and Thierry Henry's Montreal Impact will face Costa Rican sides San Carlos and Saprissa respectively.

From Mexico, Tigres will play against Alianza FC from El Salvador, Cruz Azul is set to face Jamaican club Portmore United, while Club America - fresh from reaching the league's Apertura final against Monterrey -will play against Comunicaciones from Guatemela.
