Home Game Day Info

Friday, April 5th, Kickoff 7:00pm

Last Saturday, the Whitecaps got their first point of 2019 and managed to hold off one of the league’s best scoring teams while doing so! Seattle went home frustrated after expecting a win. Some people want to be salty about that result, but maybe take a look at Doniel Henry denying a goal and get pumped for Friday:

Here’s a Fun Fact* about Saturday’s nil-nil result: That was the first clean sheet the Whitecaps have kept since they faced RSL on April 27th of LAST YEAR. Want another Fun Fact*? The Whitecaps still managed to get screwed by VAR for the third week running. What a world we live in.

And now we face the LA Zlatans. LAZ behind a clump at the top of the Zlatandings, but still off to a strong start this Zlatan. If we can Zlatan their Zlatan, we’ll Zlatan Zlatan to Zlatan Zlatan ZlataAAAUGH.

Sorry. There’s been a lot of fawning over one of the Galaxy’s players in the lead up to this Friday’s match. I forget his name, but the dog and pony show is getting on my nerves. We’ll need another strong defensive performance to start the weekend off right. Hopefully InBeom will be fully recovered from his international duty and bring some energy moving forward.
