VANCOUVER, BC – Star duo Carlos Vela and Diego Rossi sparked Los Angeles Football Club (3W-2L-0D) to a 2-0 victory over Vancouver Whitecaps FC (3W-3L-1D) on Friday evening, snapping the ‘Caps home undefeated streak at BC Place at 11 matches.
Vela and Rossi each scored in the second half, solving a ‘Caps defence that previously had not allowed a goal at home for 159 minutes, a shutout span that began in their March 4 season opener.
Despite the result, the ‘Caps maintain their top-two ranking in the conference, with a date against West leader Sporting Kansas City looming next Friday evening at Children’s Mercy Park.
