VANCOUVER, BC – Vancouver Whitecaps FC extended their lead at the top of the Western Conference standings to four points, with five matches remaining, following a hard-fought 2-1 win over the last-place Colorado Rapids at BC Place on Saturday evening.
“Great character again,” head coach Carl Robinson told reporters after the match. “It was a thoroughly professional performance, but we didn't put it away. [Players] should have scored when they had the opportunities and they didn't, and when you don't do that, you leave teams hanging.
