VANCOUVER, BC – Thirty three down, one to go.
After a 1-1 draw with San Jose Earthquakes on Sunday night at BC Place, Vancouver Whitecaps FC’s playoff fate will come down to next weekend's regular season finale at Portland Timbers.
It is Decision Day, after all.
The ‘Caps remain first in the Western Conference, two points up on Portland, which sets up a juicy battle for the top spot next Sunday at Providence Park. Vancouver needs a single point to clinch the West, as well as a bye to the Western Conference semifinals. The lowest they could finish, regardless of next weekend’s results, is third.
