PORTLAND, OREGON – A late Russell Teibert rocket earned Vancouver Whitecaps FC a 1-1 draw with expansion side Minnesota United FC on Thursday evening in preseason action at Providence Park.
After a 49th-minute own goal, Teibert drew the match level for the ‘Caps in the 82nd minute with a left-footed laser from 25 yards. Newcomer Yordy Reyna showed some fancy footwork in the build-up, dribbling across the top of the box to open up the chance.
Reyna, who was subbed on in the 64th minute, looked bright in his brief debut.
The Peruvian nearly won the game for Vancouver in stoppage time, but his long-range effort sailed just over the goal.
