The Vancouver Whitecaps played the Portland Timbers to a 1-1 draw in MLS action. Vancouver, it has to be said, looked quite good. They were able to provide some goal-scoring threat throughout the match, not just until they scored a goal, and until Portland won a late penalty you didn’t get the sense of impending doom you got in previous games.
Isaac Boehmer was, once again, fantastic in goal. He came up with big saves when the Whitecaps needed him too and looked supremely confident coming out of his goal for crosses. I am slightly baffled that he has done this well, considering he has been extremely mediocre in MLS Next Pro this season but at this point, he’s Vancouver’s first choice keeper until he proves he isn’t.
