The Vancouver Whitecaps fell 1-0 to the struggling New England Revolution in the soccer equivalent of a handful of valium. The ‘Revs have a good team on paper but were second from the bottom in the east. This outcome was inevitable is what i’m trying to say (it’s all random and none of it matters).
It was a bit of a shock to see Marinovic had been handed the start but he asserted himself well. He didn’t make any spectacular saves but dealt with everything that came his way confidently. It was a stark contrast to the nerviness that Paolo Tornaghi would sometimes inspire.
