The lessons from last week\u0027s loss to Real Salt Lake didn\u0027t stick this week, as the same fate befell Vancouver.
Defensively, they were successful in turning back most of the attacks, but the occasional diagonal long ball caught them out. The bigger problem was too many free headers in the box, with Cade Cowell coming close on two attempts from six yards out.
This time, Sergio Cordova took off Brian White in the 55th minute, and Russell Teibert and Cristian Dajome joined the party 10 minutes later. Nine minutes later, the home side went ahead, turning back a poor clearance with some tidy passing followed by a rocket just inside the post from Akapo. When the final whistle blew to signal the Quakes victory, the home side finished the game with 61 per cent possession, and outshot Vancouver 21-7 .
