Davidson apologizes to Whitecaps teammates, supporters for costly red-card offence 28 Jul 2013 “It’s just what happened,” Davidson said after the match. “I reacted wrong. For all of it, I just want to apologize to all the players. It’s very tough to play pretty much the most of the 90 minutes with 10 men. I just want to apologize to all the fans and supporters that came to watch the game."
Controversial call helps Galaxy end Whitecaps’ six-game unbeaten run 21 Jul 2013 “The assistant referee called the referee over to determine if #29 Zardes had touched the ball with his head before #33 [Villarreal] kicked the ball into the goal,” Penso wrote. “The referee determined that Zardes had not touched the ball, thus not making [Villarreal] offside. The goal was awarded.”
Red-hot Camilo keeps scoring, red-hot Whitecaps keep winning 15 Jul 2013 “For me that is not important,” Camilo said of the race for the Golden Boot. “More important for me is that our club gets up on the table. We are third place [in the Western Conference]."
Camilo named the Whitecap of the Week, er, MLS Player of the Week 15 Jul 2013 Camilo, who scored twice in the Whitecaps 3-1 win Sunday over the Chicago Fire, now leads the MLS with 12 tallies this season. And his first goal transformed what was a drab 0-0 affair into a second-half goalfest.
Knighton the third Whitecap to be named POTW in last four weeks 8 Jul 2013 In a 2-0 win over Seattle, the Whitecaps’ first win over a Cascadia rival in MLS, Knighton made a series of sensational saves. He made a one-handed stab to rob Zach Scott off a set piece. And, his double-save on Eddie Johnson and Obafemi Martins saw him dash out of goal to make the first stop, then scramble across the box to get a piece of the second shot.
Knighton stars as Whitecaps get their first Cascadia win in MLS play 7 Jul 2013 Kenny Miller and Darren Mattocks scored Vancouver’s goals, but goalkeeper Brad Knighton stole the show with several high-end saves, especially in a first half in which he made five of them.
Ho hum, Camilo scores again for the Whitecaps 4 Jul 2013 This time it was a late first-half free kick effort which proved to be the eventual equalizer in a 1-1 away draw against Sporting Kansas City on Wednesday.
Miller, red card spur Whitecaps to wild victory over the Revs 16 Jun 2013 “It’s just a clip,” Miller said. “I was getting ready to pull the trigger and put the ball in the back of the net, and he just clipped my heels or my calf. It’s one of them – it’s harsh on him, but by the letter of the law, it’s got to be a sending off.”
Whitecaps lose to Sounders: O’Brien’s injury a turning point in Cascadia Derby 9 Jun 2013 “Not to make excuses, but maybe Andy doesn't get injured if we aren't playing on grass laid on turf. They have to play in these conditions as well, but it was just one of those weird games where they scored early, but we came back and gained total control. Then Andy goes down with an injury and the game changes from there."
Whitecaps show character by getting three points in Red Bull Arena 2 Jun 2013 A 2-1 triumph over the Red Bulls was more than just three points for Vancouver; it was a statement to the fans back in British Columbia that this team wasn’t going to roll over.
