Nashville advances to a Round of 16 matchup against the reigning MLS Cup champion, Inter Miami.
In the 21st minute, Nashville SC's Matthew Corcoran lofted a cross into the center of the box, and teammate Woobens Pacius' header was saved by Garissone Innocent. Alex Muyl was there to tap in the rebound, giving the hosts a 3-0 aggregate edge over their Canadian counterparts.
