The Vancouver Whitecaps defeated Toronto FC 2 to 1 at BMO Field Saturday afternoon. This put an end to a disappointing MLS Cup defence for TFC while also keeping the Caps’ slim MLS Cup Playoff hopes alive in Craig Dalrymple’s first professional managerial victory.
The Whitecaps went into the match making only one change from last weekend, replacing Marcel De Jong with Brett Levis and switching to a 4-1-4-1 formation.
Toronto FC got off to a shaky start, surely feeling the pressure of playoff elimination as any result less than a full 3 points would eliminate them from the playoffs.
