VANCOUVER, BC – Vancouver Whitecaps FC’s historic run in the CONCACAF Champions League came to a heartbreaking end on Wednesday night at BC Place.
The ‘Caps left absolutely everything on the pitch in a David vs. Goliath showdown with Mexican Liga MX side Tigres UANL, one of the top teams in the entire CONCACAF region, but it wasn’t enough to overturn a two-goal deficit from the first leg in Monterrey, Mexico.
Ultimately, the reigning Mexican champions prevailed with a 2-1 win (4-1 on aggregate), ending Vancouver’s Champions League journey at the semifinal stage.
The ‘Caps certainly didn’t go down without a fight.
