The Vancouver Whitecaps secured the Cascadia Cup on Sunday night behind two second-half goals that helped them grab a 2-0 win over a battered and bruised Seattle Sounders side. The ‘Caps had the bulk of the possession but had trouble finding the knockout punch on a reeling Seattle side. Rayan Elloumi ultimately obliged, before Thomas Müller put things out of reach with a second goal. … Continue reading Post Match: Cascadia Cup Headed Back to Vancouver
The Vancouver Whitecaps will seek to overcome a 3-0 deficit when they head to Spokane on Wednesday for the return leg of their CONCACAF Champions Cup Round of 16 tie against the Seattle Sounders.

The Vancouver Whitecaps will head south to Seattle on Saturday night, seeking to claim the Cascadia Cup and cement their position near the top of the Supporters Shield standings.

Raise your hand if you saw that coming? OK, now put your hand down. The Vancouver Whitecaps had enough of their first-teamers on the mend to put together a credible starting XI on Sunday night, but no one foresaw a 3-0 drubbing of a lacklustre Seattle Sounders side. Jeevan Badwal opened his Whitecaps account and Tristan Blackmon cut open the Sounders backline forcing a pair … Continue reading Report Card: Well That Was Unexpected

It appears that threats of the Vancouver Whitecaps’ demise might’ve been greatly exaggerated. Okay, the disappointment from the Whitecaps’ Champions Cup final loss to Cruz Azul won’t go away anytime soon – such was the manner of that defeat – but for those who had watched this team this year, it was also obvious that the Whitecaps put in just about the worst performance they … Continue reading Post Match: Guts and Glory
