Here are Colin’s keys to a Concacaf Champions League comeback in the second leg of the quarterfinals against LAFC.

Stop Bouanga

This is easier said than done.

After scoring two goals in the first leg, he had a hat-trick on Saturday against Austin.

He is the hottest player in MLS right now.

Stay with runners

In order to have a chance we need to contain LAFC.

For the ‘Caps that means stay with runners and impose yourself defensively.

Pressure as high and consistent as we can.

Move the ball quickly

In order to have a chance to advance, we will need to score at least three goals.

We need to move the ball quickly and with quality in order to create chances.

The ball over the top has to be an option as well.
