After making two appearances in the Scotiabank CONCACAF Champions League (2012/13, 2014/15) and compiling a 1W-1D-6L (4GF, 20GA) record, Panama’s Chorrillo FC earned a place in the first Scotiabank CONCACAF League by virtue of having being the non-finalist with best aggregate record in the 2016/17 season.
The Fiebre Amarilla’s only SCCL win came against visiting Cruz Azul, 1-0, on August 18, 2014. Yuri Arboleda (70’) scored the game’s only goal in the second half.
Chorrillo FC has won two Panamanian league titles (2011 Apertura, 2014 Clausura).
