The reigning MLS Cup champions have lost their last three games in British Columbia, and road goals serve as the first tiebreaker in the two-leg quarterfinal so one finish could prove pivotal.
Does the best soccer team in North America play in Los Angeles?The day before his group hosts the Los Angeles Football Club for the opening leg of the quarterfinal round of the CONCACAF Champions League, Sartini declared that “from Panama to the Yukon the best team, so that’s the challenge that they present to us.”
“We know they are very strong but we also know at home we have a strong record against them,” Sartini said. “We have the weapon to block them.” Whitecaps forward Simon Becher was named MLS Player of the Week with a pair of goals and an assist against Montreal in his first start for the club. Like LAFC, the Whitecaps jumped out to a big advantage after the first leg of the Round of 16 and moved through on aggregate despite dropping the return match.
