Friday night at BC Place, the Vancouver Whitecaps emerged victorious over the Houston Dynamo with a late-game charge that saw them score twice from the 88th minute onward, winning by a score of 2-1.
This is a bit of a tricky one to evaluate for Vancouver. Obviously, you have to be happy with the final result and keeping your playoff hopes well and truly intact. Equally though, the Whitecaps will be frustrated by conceding another unforced early goal, as well as providing Houston with multiple opportunities where they could have doubled the advantage. It felt like a team more consistent than Houston would have buried the Whitecaps for their mistakes well before the late stages and therefore the comeback may never have been on the table.
