John McCarthy made four saves, leading the Los Angeles Galaxy to a scoreless draw against Mexico's UANL Tigres in the first leg of a CONCACAF Champions Cup quarterfinal series on Tuesday in Carson, Calif.

The second and final leg of the total-goal series will be played on April 8 at San Nicolas de los Garza, Mexico.

Tigres goalie Nahuel Guzman finished with two saves.


The visitors finished with a 17-8 edge in shots and a 4-2 advantage in shots on target, and Tigres possessed the ball for 53.8 percent of the game.

The Galaxy-Tigres winner will move on to a semifinal series against the victor of the all-Mexico quarterfinal between Cruz Azul or Club America. Those teams also played to a scoreless draw Tuesday at Estadio Ciudad de los Deportes in Mexico City.

Their second leg will be on April 8 at Estadio Olimpico Universitario in Mexico City.

In the other half of the bracket, Los Angeles FC and Inter Miami face off in an all-MLS quarterfinal and the Vancouver Whitecaps play Mexico City-based Pumas UNAM. Both first-leg matches are Wednesday, in Los Angeles and Vancouver, respectively.
