Cann's Corner: Big play breakdown from Union vs. Vancouver
One of the more intriguing aspects of the Vancouver Whitecaps vs Philadelphia Union match last Saturday, at least on paper, was that given their talent both teams should have a clear target to attack on the other side.
Vancouver was hoping the recent sparks they have seen from Alphonso Davies would spread into a full-fledged fire with another dominant display against Keegan Rosenberry, who has had an up-and-down defensive season. The Union had eyes on Brek Shea, an absurdly positionless player despite a resume that includes a stint in the English Premier League. Jim Curtin and Philadelphia got at Shea; Rosenberry, meanwhile, turned in a largely excellent performance.
