Report Card: Whitecaps’ Weakest Links Exposed in Loss to Minnesota

Friday night at BC Place, the Vancouver Whitecaps uncharacteristically threw away home points against Minnesota United, allowing three unanswered second-half goals and falling by a score of 3-1.

Now I am going to be honest with you, this report card is going to get a bit ugly. There were some pretty obvious reasons this match went sideways for Vancouver, and a few players in particular are going to bear the brunt of the second-half collapse.

I think the problems for Vancouver in this match fall into two distinct categories:

1) Reasons why Vancouver wasn’t able to see out the 1-0 lead

and

2) Reasons the Whitecaps lost 3-1

Keep these two categories in mind as we dive into the individual player grades.
