VANCOUVER, BC – Kendall Waston is as emotional as they come.
His high-stepping, arm-waving goal celebrations will tell you as much. This is a player that cares. A player that wants nothing more than to help his team win. It’s an admirable trait – and one of the reasons Waston has become a fan favourite in Vancouver and his native Costa Rica.
It’s also one of the reasons he’s run into some disciplinary issues in the past.
Waston was suspended six times in 2016. Three of those were straight red cards. In total, he went into the referee’s notebook 11 times.
