Group A – Round 7 Recap
Deportivo Garcilaso (PER) continue to dominate at the top of the table, picking up another win to extend their unbeaten run to seven matches. With 18 points and the league’s best attack (23 goals scored), they’re looking like the team to beat in Group A.
Vancouver Whitecaps FC (CND) remain close behind in 2nd on 17 points, also unbeaten, and keeping pace with Garcilaso thanks to a strong mix of home form and away resilience.

Toronto FC (CND) and Deportes Iquique (CHI) are tied on 12 points, rounding out the top five. Toronto’s attack has been sharp, while Iquique rely on balanced performances at home to stay competitive.
