Whitecaps Beat Reporter
Starters
Ousted 8.5
-Another save of the week candidate off an RSL corner to get the Whitecaps the three points. He did set up his wall incorrectly in the free kick goal that he let in but made up for it with some great saves.
Beitashour 7.0
-Second straight decent game from the veteran right back. Was in the correct position all game long and had some nice runs up the wing to get involved in the offensive side of the pitch.
Waston 8.0
– Had four great chances for goals off corners. Was able to get his head on them but just couldn’t find the back of the net. Was a beast defensively all game long, didn’t give an inch to any RSL player in the area.
Kah 6.5
-Another okay game for Kah. His silly yellow card did lead to the free kick on the RSL goal. Look for him to be left home while the team travels to Montreal on Wednesday.
Harvey 7.0
-Has filled in nicely for the injured youngster Sam Adekugbe. Jumped up in the offense time and time again down the wing. Was solid defensively and was never caught out of position.
-His best game of the season. Was dominant defensively making great challenges and tackles all game long. Was strong on the ball and had some great runs through the middle of the pitch. Used his strength to knock the RSL player off the ball to score the goal of his career.
Laba 8.0
– Another great performance by Laba. Game in and game out he is always one of the best players on the pitch. Was solid shutting down the middle of the pitch.
Rosales 7.5
-One of his better games this season. Linked up well with Morales and they where able to give each enough space to make some great runs.
-Was sporting his shooting boots all game long. Had a few decent strikes on goal but wasn’t able to score any goals. Had some nice open space by teaming up nicely with Rosales.
Techera 8.5
-Opened his goal scoring account with great hustle and football IQ. Was all over the pitch all game long and his hard work was rewarded with a goal.
Rivero 7.0
-Had an amazing chance on a beautiful weighted ball over the top but Rimando was able to get his toe on it. Was his usual strong self on the ball, holding the ball up well allowing the wingers to get involved.
Subs
Manneh 7.0 (69′)
-Had some nice runs down the wing coming on as a substitute. Should continue to come off the bench as he hasn’t made the most of his opportunities as a starter.
Mattocks N/A (86′)
-Came in late and didn’t have a chance to get involved in game.
Teibert N/A (90′)
-Came in late and didn’t have a chance to get involved in game.
