TORONTO — The Vancouver Whitecaps are racking up the frequent flyer miles. And climbing the MLS standings.
Goals by Tristan Blackmon and Brian White lifted Vancouver to a 2-1 comeback win Saturday in Toronto, the latest chapter in a profitable seven-game road trip."It's a fantastic win," said the colourful Italian."It's beautiful and also we played very well.
"Of course, it's not an ideal situation. But I think we have a kind of maturity at the moment that even if we go down, we keep doing the thing we're supposed to do. We stick to the plan. … But of course, let's hope to score first the next game." One of those rare victories came last time out, a 3-1 decision over visiting Philadelphia that snapped a 10-game losing streak. The three goals scored in the victory over the Union matched Toronto's total in the 10 previous losses.Interim Toronto coach Terry Dunfield called Vancouver a"really good team, a really well-organized team. They don't give you a ton."
The Whitecaps answered six minutes later via a Blackmon header off a corner. It was the second of the season for the American defender who had just three goals in his first five MLS campaigns.Ryan Raposo could have made to 2-1 for Vancouver minutes later but his shot hit the crossbar. "Up until that point of the goals, I thought it was a nice performance against a good side," said Dunfield.
It was the first meeting between the two sides since the Canadian Championship final in July 2022 when the Whitecaps won by penalty shootout, prompting a shirtless celebration by Sartini in front of the jubilant fans at B.C. Place Stadium.
