Looks like Vancouver sports teams overall are having a good time with getting wins as the Vancouver Whitecaps has brought home the win against Los Angeles with a crazy 3-0 victory. Its clear they took that win LA got against them in the first win and the controversial penalty very personal to the point they came out guns blazing in the second game on Sunday nights game.

On Sunday Nov. 3rd, the Whitecaps and Los Angeles had their 2nd game against each other for the playoffs. This game had everyone on the edge of their seats on both sides leading into the game and when the first kick happened. However, things really shacked up at the beginning of the game.
LA who was riding off of their first win and was determined to follow it up with another, got absolutely decimated in the first half of the game by the Whitecaps. The team’s “main man” Ryan Gauld netted two back to back wins in just the first 15 minutes of the game with him getting another goal at the beginning of the second half.
A dream start for @WhitecapsFC!
Their main man Ryan Gauld slots it home. 🔥

Seriously, talk about coming out swinging and being hungry for the win. This was honestly the kind of game that embodies the meaning of make a strong comeback. If you were at the game or watching it a home like me, then I bet you were seeing everyone’s shock at how the Whitecaps really brought their A game that night and was ready.
Apart from Gauld who now has a total of five goals and an assist in this year’s MLS Playoffs, the Whitecaps Goalkeeper, Yohei Takaoka also did an amazing job that night as he stopped all the shots that came his way and made a total of four saves in the game. One of these highlighted saves was when he absolutely denied Denis Bouanga with an incredible save.

Overall, to say the Whitecaps did amazing would be an understatement as they were fully prepared that night with their offence and defence and some of their key players reminding us why they were so great. The overall wins are now 1-1 for the playoffs game with Game 3 set to take place on Nov.8th. Things have really gotten interesting as now both teams are just 1 game away from the win. Who do you think will win the Whitecaps or Los Angeles? Leave a comment and let me know about your predictions and which side your going for
