Whitecaps muff chance to draw CCL semifinal level, pay for it in the end 5 Apr 2017 At the end of the night, the “attempts at goal” stat might be 20-2 in your opponent’s favour, so you know that those two chances you’ll get both have to end up in the back of the net.
Goodbye papa, please pray for me: Tigres fans honour Terry Jacks, as their team beats the Whitecaps 14 Mar 2017 But, for most of the second half, the loud-as-hell trumpeter (or was it a trumpet section) in Monterrey’s famous “Volcano” stadium belted out “Seasons in the Sun.” Over and over. Maybe it was because Tigres were playing the Vancouver Whitecaps Tuesday night in the first leg of their CONCACAF Champions League semifinal — and well, Terry Jacks is from Vancouver.
NHL’s renaissance means MLS won’t have same window of opportunity it had in 2016 23 Feb 2017 Basically, we have a radically different sports landscape in Canada as MLS is set to open the 2017 season. Unlike last season, the sports media will have its eyes squarely set on the NHL.
Calamitous Whitecaps throw away the Canadian Championship 29 Jun 2016 Johnson went down injured after tripping over Ousted while in the act of shooting. In fact, not to overdramatize the whole thing, but it was reminiscent of another famous Cup-winning goal from another sport; Bobby Orr tripping over Glenn Hall while in the act of scoring a championship-deciding marker.
Rocky Mountain low: Whitecaps’ playoff hopes die in the Denver suburbs 20 Oct 2013 “That’s been the frustrating part of this game and, in some ways, our season.

Hat trick is like Manneh from heaven for the Whitecaps 10 Oct 2013 “I always have this feeling, every game, that I'm going to make an impact,” Manneh told reporters following the game. “No matter how much time I play — if I start or come off the bench — I'm always looking to make an impact on the game.”
Camilo’s amazing brace puts shine on disappointing draw for Whitecaps 7 Oct 2013 “If I was sitting in the stands I think I would be going home a very happy fan, but unfortunately for us their 'keeper makes two world-class saves,” captain Jay DeMerit told reporters following the match. “They should be making a statue of Donovan Ricketts in Portland right now, because he's definitely kept them in it, which is disappointing for us, because that was a game where we should have taken three points.”
Whitecaps shut out at home by RSL’s reserves 29 Sep 2013 “I have no idea what happened,” Reo-Coker said. “No explanation. I'm not going to make up no lies, no nothing. Today, we got taught a lesson. They were the better team than us. They've got a system they play. We struggled with their system."
Whitecaps 3, Impact 0: Schallibaum erupts over game-changing decision 21 Sep 2013 “He whistled for a penalty and then he was influenced by the fourth official who said he didn't think it was,” Schallibaum said following the game. “For me it's a scandal because a decision was made and then all of a sudden it's not a penalty. It was something that changed the game even though we did not play a strong first half and we were unlucky on the penalty to Hassoun.”
