SDFC heads into the offseason as runner-ups in the MLS Western Conference
As Frontera SD’s closing serenade for their beloved Chrome and Azul faded into the chilly Southern California night, San Diego FC’s incredible inaugural season came to a somber close.
Eliminated in a disappointing 3-1 loss to the Vancouver Whitecaps, SDFC was put on the back foot early and never fully recovered. Whitecaps striker Brian White carved through San Diego’s backline to earn himself a first-half brace, which, alongside an ill-fated own goal, left SDFC down big without a score at halftime.
