Lucas Cavallini proclaimed last month once he scored his first MLS goal, “I know I won’t stop.”
Goals haven’t quite flowed like water for the Canadian national team standout, but El Tanque is enjoying his best form since joining the league. He has three goals in his last two games — both important Vancouver wins, including a brace in Wednesday’s 2-1 victory over LAFC at Providence Park.
A big key to his offensive production, according to Whitecaps FC coach Marc dos Santos, is Cavallini’s work on the other side of the ball.
