With another massive victory over Minnesota United at BC Place on Wednesday night by a score of 2-1, the Whitecaps surged to 5th in the Western Conference standings with just two matches left in the regular season.
The way the Whitecaps have been able to turn around what, at many times, looked like a lost season is remarkable. In addition to three wins in their last four matches, the Whitecaps have lost just two of their last twenty outings. I almost feel as though that’s worth repeating for effect: just two in their last twenty!
Yes, some of those matches were under Marc Dos Santos, and yes, he deserves at least some credit for the foundation which has led to this mid-season renaissance.
