Here are 3 things to watch for when Minnesota United takes on the Whitecaps in Vancouver tonight.
Calvo out
Defender and Captain Francisco Calvo will miss tonight’s match, as his wife Marianna just gave birth to their son Gael yesterday. Congratulations to the Calvo family!
While this is great news for Francisco, it’s bad news for the Loons, as Calvo has been their best player throughout the season, and they are a much better team when he’s in the Starting XI. Expect a Brent Kallman/Michael Boxall CB pairing tonight, while Marc Burch takes Calvo’s Left back spot if he can go.
