Post Match: Soccer, a High-Variance Sport

Ahead of Sebastian Berhalter’s last-minute winner, I was constructing an article about how soccer is a high-variance, low-scoring sport. Unlike, for example, basketball, one or two moments can lead to a team that probably deserved to win losing.

The Vancouver Whitecaps opened their MLS season with impressive displays across their first four matches, but recent form has dipped slightly, with a fifth-game loss to San Jose leaving them at 4 wins, 0 draws, and 1 loss.
