Whitecaps FC manager Carl Robinson made nine changes to his starting XI from last Thursday’s 1-1 draw against Minnesota United FC. Only central midfielder Andrew Jacobson and attacker Kekuta Manneh remained, with the latter moving to left wing from his previous central attacking role.

Giles Barnes looked the likeliest to score for the ‘Caps in the opening half, first hitting a shot over the crossbar on nine minutes, then striking one at goalkeeper Nick Rimando on 32 minutes after being played in by striker Kyle Greig, who was also very active in the first half.
