Halftime:   LA 1  Vancouver 0

 

A so-so 45 minutes in front of a sparse LA crowd.

 

LA took the lead on a nice goal by Riqui Puig.

 

Brian White had a couple of chances to score but couldn't capitalize.  Which seems to be a theme with Brian White.

 

It doesn't help that Veselinović was hurt and had to come off midway through the half.

 

The game has an air of inevitablity about it - Vancouver will go through the motions and lose.

 

But one can always hope.

Maybe Ryan Reynolds and his partner, can buy ownership the Caps.

Shuffle players back and forth, can't be any worse.

Nor sure if that would be legal, but the commute between Vancity and Wales would be pretty brutal....

Okay, let's be clear:  LA should have won this game.  They dominated the first half, took the lead, and dominated the second half.

 

Then, with about ten minutes left, LA scored a bad own goal.  Not that there are good own goals, but this one was bad.  

 

It looked like this was going to go to penalties.  (And for some reason, which I missed, Takaoka wasn't playing, wasn't even on the bench.  Boehmer was in goal.)

 

But the Caps made a last push effort in the last minutes of the game and who scores the winner?  None other than Brian White.

 

Shows how much I know.  

 

But Vancouver moves on to the Round of 32.
