The 1st round of the MLS play-offs ends in the coming days. Match 3 of the series between Los Angeles FC and Vancouver Whitecaps will take place this Saturday at 5:00 a.m. at BMO Stadium. Brilliant during the regular season, Los Angeles FC finished at the top of the Western Conference. The winner of the US Open Cup was able to get off to a good start in the first round of the play-offs, winning at home against Vancouver Whitecaps (2-1). Steve Cherundolo’s team, however, was unable to punch its ticket to the future during match 2, losing to Canada (3-0). She will therefore have no choice during this last meeting.
For its part, Vancouver Whitecaps finished in 8th position in the MLS Western Conference. He had to go through the play-offs to reach the play-offs. Vanni Sartini’s men managed to qualify, leaving Portland Timbers (5-0) not the slightest chance. They clearly did not make up the numbers in this 1st round of the play-offs, while they took 1 match against Los Angeles FC, one of the favorites for the coronation. However, it will be very complicated to hope to release it, especially on the move.
