Report Card: The New Kings of British Columbia

Take a breath Whitecaps fans, it seems the days of losing to CPL teams are in the rear-view mirror. Prior to Wednesday, Vancouver’s record on the island was less than favourable, as they were o for 1. Despite this, the Whitecaps were able to set those demons aside on Wednesday and got the job done at Starlight. While not as dominating as the final scoreline … Continue reading Report Card: The New Kings of British Columbia

Scary Ali Ahmed injury overshadows Whitecaps’ Canadian Championship win

The Vancouver Whitecaps are on their way to a second straight Canadian Championship final but the proceedings against Pacific FC at Starlight Stadium took a backseat following a horrific injury to Ali Ahmed, who the club later reported sustained a concussion and briefly was knocked unconscious following a hard tackle.

Match Preview: Whitecaps Searching for Ferryside Redemption

Wednesday night at Starlight Stadium in Langford, the Vancouver Whitecaps will take on Pacific FC in the Canadian Championship semi-finals. This matchup needs no introduction and already feels steeped in history despite the fact that these teams have only met once in their collective franchise histories. Perhaps it’s because there’s been so much crossover between these clubs in terms of players, coaches, and staff historically. … Continue reading Match Preview: Whitecaps Searching for Ferryside Redemption

Report Card: Sweet, Sweet Victory over Seattle

Saturday night at BC Place, the Vancouver Whitecaps finally delivered on their potential, securing a massive three points against Cascadia foes Seattle Sounders by a score of 2-0. For all that has been made about this team’s improvement in terms of underlying numbers (I’ve been as guilty of this as anyone), it had been frustrating to see the Whitecaps sputter along only harnessing a small … Continue reading Report Card: Sweet, Sweet Victory over Seattle

Post Match: Whitecaps Kings in Cascadia Clash

As has become habit, the Vancouver Whitecaps had another momentum swing this weekend, earning a big home win after two disappointing losses.

Somehow though, the stars aligned at BC place and the … Continue reading Post Match: Whitecaps Kings in Cascadia Clash
