Despite an overhaul this past off-season, both on and off the field, VWFC is without a victory after five matches. kenwardskorner tees up tonight's match at Chicago:
Having been shut out in three of their last four games, the Vancouver Whitecaps are eager to end their scoring woes.
While Vancouver has improved its overall play from the beginning of March, it has squandered too many chances, and left far too many points on the table. Those are two subjects new coach Marc Dos Santos has been stressing to his squad heading into one of their busiest stretches of 2019. Big chances have been hard to come by for Vancouver. Last week, after being gifted an early penalty kick against the LA Galaxy, Ali Adnan stubbed his cheeky attempt, which barely made it to the goal-line. That was one of just 18 combined shots on goal for the club this season. Only Atlanta United have fewer in MLS.
Montero scored on a penalty kick on March 16 against Houston. That has been his lone shot on target so far. That is not a stat you expect to see from player brought in to score goals. “I believe in the tools he has,” Dos Santos said. “He is a 1-v-1 player that at any given moment can make a difference.
