Coffee with the Caps, Monday July 27
Good Monday morning Caps fans. Hope you all had a lovely weekend and are preparing for the week ahead. The Whitecaps wrapped up their road trip Saturday with a drab 0-0 draw with Minnesota United. I will confess that I didn’t watch live but it doesn’t seem like much was missed. Vancouver over corrected from their 4-3 loss in Cincinnati by strengthening the backline but … Continue reading Coffee with the Caps, Monday July 27
Report Card: Saint Paul Stalemate
Saturday night in Minnesota, the Vancouver Whitecaps played out a 0-0 draw with the Loons at Allianz Field. With the result, Jesper Sørensen’s side closed out a rather lethargic road swing, picking up just one of a possible six points against two teams sitting on the playoff bubble in their respective conferences. Vancouver largely controlled proceedings and certainly dominated possession, finishing with 64% of the … Continue reading Report Card: Saint Paul Stalemate
Post Match: Lethargic in Loon-Land
As far as points earned in the Vancouver Whitecaps’ Jesper Sørensen era, their 0-0 road draw with Minnesota United on Saturday won’t rank too highly. Days after a frustrating 4-3 road loss to FC Cincinnati, the Whitecaps found a way to rebound defensively, but did so at the cost of their offence. As a result, they gritted their way to their first 0-0 draw since … Continue reading Post Match: Lethargic in Loon-Land
Match Preview: Shorthanded Whitecaps Wrap Road Trip in Minnesota
The Vancouver Whitecaps finish up their monster road trip with a date with Minnesota United at Allianz Field. Both teams will be looking to bounce back from midweek defeats, after Minnesota fell 2-1 to Sporting KC and the Caps lost a 4-3 goal fest in Cincinnati that featured some uncharacteristically shaky defending.

Coffee with the Caps, Friday July 24
Good Friday morning Caps fans. Hope you all are having a good week and that you are ready for the weekend. The big news of this week was not Vancouver’s disappointing (yet electric) 4-3 loss to FC Cincinnati on Wednesday. If only that were the biggest disappointment of the week. No, it appears the Caps have finalized a deal to sell Sebastian Berhalter to Championship … Continue reading Coffee with the Caps, Friday July 24
Report Card: A Slow Restart
The Vancouver Whitecaps did not have the ideal return to MLS action in Cincinnati. They turned in their worst defensive performance of the season, conceding more than two goals in a league match for the first time all year, and despite scoring three times on the road, came away empty-handed. For a team that is rarely susceptible to a trap game, this one certainly had … Continue reading Report Card: A Slow Restart
Post Match: Second Best in the Queen City
Wednesday night in Cincinnati, the Vancouver Whitecaps dropped just their third match of the MLS season in a 4-3 defeat at TQL Stadium. It was a bit of a messy return to league play for the Whitecaps, as they played right into Cincinnati’s hands in a wide-open match that had five goals inside the first 36 minutes. Vancouver has been an extremely consistent defensive team … Continue reading Post Match: Second Best in the Queen City
Match Preview: Let’s Try That Again
After last week’s false start, Vancouver Whitecaps get their 2026 MLS campaign back up and running when they travel to Eastern Conference playoff chasers FC Cincinnati. With MLS yet to return to full throttle after the restart, we are yet to see who has used the break to their advantage and which sides will take a step backwards into the second half of the year. … Continue reading Match Preview: Let’s Try That Again
Guess the Starting XI – Match Fifteen vs. FC Cincinnati
Welcome back, everyone. The Vancouver Whitecaps will try again to restart their MLS season this Wednesday night in Ohio, as they take on FC Cincinnati in an intra-conference matchup. Cincinnati currently sits seventh in the East, with a symmetrical 5-5-5 record. Advanced models seem to echo that profile, as they look like a true middle-of-the-road team through 15 matches. This is one of the league’s … Continue reading Guess the Starting XI – Match Fifteen vs. FC Cincinnati
