Whitecaps FC held their year-end media availability on Thursday, and CEO and sporting director Axel Schuster discussed a variety of topics following a 2020 season marked both by adversity and growth for the young squad.
EVALUATING THE SEASON
The ‘Caps ultimately fell three points short of the final goal of making the postseason, but the club has to be pleased with the strides that the team showed especially late, finishing 4W-3L in their final seven matches despite being displaced in foreign territory for the last 51 days of the regular season.
Whitecaps FC ranked ninth in the Western Conference, an improvement from their 12th place finish in the prior season.
