The Cascadia Cup rivalry takes no games off, even in the preseason.
The Seattle Sounders and Vancouver Whitecaps dueled to a 1-1 draw in a 120-minute scrimmage in
Casa Grande, Ariz., on Monday -- a game that included nine cautions and a red card. The game was
split into two 45-minute sessions and a 30-minute one, with each team using different lineups in
each period to take advantage of their expanded lists of trialists and rostered players.

The man responsible for the tumultuous offseason the Colorado Rapids endured is prolonging his
stay with the club.
Technical Director Paul Bravo signed a new three-year deal with the Rapids on Wednesday,
extending a stay that began in 2009.

With the news of Sebastien Le Toux joining the Vancouver Whitecaps on a trade today. It has to,
no, it must be pointed out exactly how stacked these Whitecaps are on offense.
Just look at these names currently on the roster (and in camp):
- Camilo
- Eric Hassli
- Atiba Harris
- Omar Salgado
- Darren Mattocks
- Davide Chiumiento
- Lee Nguyen
- Long Tan
- Sebastien Le Toux
- Etienne Barbara (not currently signed)
Holy smokes.

If Sebastien Le Toux makes an appearance at PPL Park this summer for his second MLS All-Star
Game, he won't be representing the home team. He'll be doing it as a member of the Vancouver
Whitecaps.
The Philadelphia Union officially announced that they have dealt Le Toux to the Whitecaps,
acquiring an undisclosed sum of allocation money in exchange for its leading scorer and 2010 MLS
All-Star.
Philadelphia Union fans have endured a roller coaster off-season, first with Sebastien LeToux's
trial at Bolton, then Monday's sudden departure of goalkeeper Faryd Mondragon. Now it appears that
after initially thinking LeToux would wind up staying with the Union, the French striker looks set
to depart.

KANSAS CITY, Mo. -- The Montreal Impact made Duke centerback Andrew Wenger the first selection
in the 2012 MLS SuperDraft, taking the versatile, U.S. Under-23 defender with its first-ever draft
pick.
Wenger, the 2011 MAC Hermann Trophy winner, is the reigning ACC Offensive Player of the Year, a
year after he captured the conference's Defensive Player of the Year honors.
Recuperamos un artículo que se perdió en la nube de internet ie. los que publicamos anteriores
a enero de 2010. Estamos en un momento en el que el fútbol priman los resultados, ganar por encima
de todo, los intereses económicos acechan y los clubes exigen a los jugadores que sean
profesionales al cien por cien.

Todos amamos a los porteros que anotan goles, este miercoles en la liga colombiana se jugaba un
lugar por los mejores puestos en la tabla, el partido parecia se iria sin goles, pero Santa Fe
necesitaba urgentemente los tres puntos para poder clasificar a la post temporada, el portero
Camilo Vargas tuvo criticas durante el partido, pero se lanzo de manera dramatica a buscar el
remate de cabeza en el ultimo minuto del partido y de cabeza le dio la victoria a su equipo.
The mid-week games saw Dallas get back to their winning ways while Vancouver took down DC United.
Playoff hopes were diminished for both Eastern Conference teams. Here's Pedro Gomes with the
mid-week recap.
Chicago Fire 1, FC Dallas 2
Dallas traveled to Chi-Town looking to cement a place in the post-season against a recently
resurgent Chicago Fire squad who were looking to keep their play-off hopes alive.

On the outside looking in for a playoff spot to begin the night, the climb toward the MLS
postseason got a little steeper for D.C. United.
The Vancouver Whitecaps played spoiler Wednesday night at B.C. Place Stadium, holding on for a
2-1 victory thanks to strong defensive play for 56 minutes, another goal for leading scorer Camilo
and the first career MLS goal for forward Long Tan.
Real Salt Lake's Collen Warner was shown a straight red card for a handball in the 42nd minute,
with Vancouver's Camilo converting the resulting penalty. That opened the door for a Whitecaps rout
in front of 20,113 fans at BC Place. Camilo converted a second penalty in the 53rd minute, with
Nizar Khalfan scoring in the 88th.

Parking and seats on the SkyTrain were probably more difficult to come by than Vancouver
Whitecaps' goals Thursday night in downtown Vancouver.
With the NHL Canucks playing nearby in their regular-season opener, the Whitecaps still drew a
big crowd of 20,113 fans to their brand new home, B.
The best photo from a blurry batch of cell-phone pictures. I'm glad to say that I was lucky enough
to be able to go to Empire Field's last Vancouver Whitecaps game against the Seattle Sounders. When
I go see matches live, I'm usually too engrossed in the action and swept up by the atmosphere to be
able to properly focus on what I'm going to write later in the match report.

se llama Fredy MONTERO. Sus cuatro goles en el Derbi Noroeste, dos contra el Portland Timbers en
Junio y otro par esta noche ante el Vancouver Whitecaps le han dado al Seattle Sounders FC su
primer Cascadia Cup -de la era [.
Keane's well placed header Preparing myself mentally to watch the Whitecaps is a long experience,
especially when they're facing the top of the table LA Galaxy, at the Home Depot Center, where the
Galaxy have yet to lose. Yet as the match kicked off, the Caps seemed organized, hardworking, and
ready to create a few attacking opportunities of their own.

The New York Red Bulls couldn't muster more than a point against the last place Vancouver
Whitecaps in a virtual must-win.
Down a goal and a man, Juan Agudelo came to the rescue with a crucial goal in the 68th minute.
Rafa Marquez played a long 30-yard cross into the box that found a streaking Agudelo.

After returning from my lengthy vacation, it took me some time to get back into my usual rhythm
regarding the Whitecaps. The game against Portland is the first game I've seen for about six solid
weeks, and I can't say I saw any improvements in my Whitecaps.
Like usual I got home late and turned on the TV with the game already started.

The Portland Timbers have become known as the MLS team that doesn't know how to hold leads, that
lets advantages on the scoreboard slip away as its defense falters and its offense stagnates.
It has happened too many times already in this inaugural season for fans of the Timbers.

D.C. United's rookie crop has turned in quite the season.
This past weekend it was goalkeeper Joe Willis' turn to answer the call, as he stepped in for
the suspended Bill Hamid and delivered some top-notch saves against the Vancouver Whitecaps en
route to a clean sheet in his MLS debut and earned SBI MLS Rookie of the Week honors.
Chris Pontius scored on either side of halftime and rookie goalkeeper Joe Willis marked his MLS
debut with a shutout to go along with two highlight reel saves to help D.C. United to a 4-0 win
over the Vancouver Whitecaps ...
After a month away from my dear Whitecaps (vacationing in Italy), I'm glad to finally be back and
able to check up with everything that has been going on with the team. Right away I saw the
highlights of a fantastic 4-2 home victory against the Chicago Fire, and while there were some new
faces that I didn't recognize playing for the Caps, the team still had the same heart and spirit as
ever.

Eric Hassli gave Vancouver a quick start at Empire Field on Sunday night, scoring two minutes in
against Chicago. The Fire equalized through Dominic Oduro in the 23rd minute, but Gershon Koffie
had Vancouver back in front a minute later. Camilo made it 3-1 Vancouver in the 48th, with Hassli
scoring his second goal in the 72nd minute.

Almost five months ago on a sunny day at Empire Field in Vancouver, B.C., the home team
Whitecaps made quite a first impression in their debut MLS match, with striker Eric Hassli scoring
twice in a 4-2 win.
Wins have been hard to come by since then.
Camilo Sanvezzo and Davide Chiumiento of Vancouver Whitecaps are featured in the above video, to
show you how EA Sports captures video of players and turns them into animations for the upcoming
FIFA 12 video game.
As you can see in the above video, EA Sports used to film amateurs but they found it was better
to put professional soccer players on the pitch to capture a more true representation of the
beautiful game.
Vancouver's Strategy Still trying to figure out how to best use his new signing, Tom Soehn
made a formation adjustment from the San Jose match. Peter Vagenas was left on the bench and Davide
Chiumiento started in the center. The switch resulted in a diamond 4-4-2 look, with Chiumiento in
front of the holding midfielder Koffie.
Entering the match, the two sides came in limping. Vancouver were on a four match losing streak and
San Jose had gone winless in six.
San Jose's Strategy Frank Yallop started with a 4-2-3-1
formation, using Wondolowski on the left side instead of as a strike partner for Lenhart. Lenhart's
job was to hold up the ball and he took quite a pummeling doing so.

San Jose and Vancouver didn't look like two teams a long way from playoff contention Wednesday
night at Buck Shaw Stadium.
In fact, it was almost a shame neither team -- both were in need of a win -- walked away
victorious. Instead, both settled for a 2-2 draw.
Shaun Wright-Phillips' 25-yard gave touring Manchester City a 2-1 win against Vancouver Whitecaps
in friendly action on Monday night. Camilo Sanvezzo's surprisingly put MLS strugglers Vancouver up
1-0 in the 30th-minute on a deflected shot before Swedish Under-21 international John Guidetti
equalized for the FA Cup champions on 68 minutes.
The fourth match of the 2011 World Football Challenge took place in Vancouver on Monday night,
and though the Vancouver Whitecaps gave their fans hope of a win, it was Manchester City that wound
up victorious.
Manchester City defeated the Whitecaps 2-1 on goals from John Guidetti and Shaun Wright-Phillips
in the second half.

Mustapha Jarju. You got that name? Alright. Learn it because he's MLS's newest Designated Player
today as Vancouver announced the signing of the 24-year old Gambian striker today.
Jarju joins Whitecaps FC after three successful seasons with Belgian club Royal Albert-Elisabeth
Club (RAEC) de Mons.
No, the first African Designated Player in MLS won't be Didier Drogba.
The Vancouver Whitecaps announced the signing of 24-year-old Gambian forward Mustapha Jarju on
Tuesday, making him the first African DP in MLS history.
Jarju, who is also known as Toubabo, most recently played for RAEC Mons, which was just promoted
to the top flight in Belgium.
Reinforcements could be on their way to Vancouver. The club is set to make a "major"
announcement this morning. Yeah I know what you all are thinking with the word major in quotes but
this one seems fairly straight forward here. Marc Weber of The Providence is reporting the club is
set to sign a forward, possibly a Designated Player to go along with their current DP forward Eric
Hassli.
The Vancouver Whitecaps are ready to make a major player announcement on Tuesday morning, and
while there is no clear evidence of who the player is, there are plenty of rumors swirling about
where the player might be from.
There is a strong belief the player is of Africa descent after well-known Nigerian journalist
Colin Udoh wrote on Twitter that a captain of an African national team was going to be announced as
the first MLS Designated Player from Africa in a Tuesday press conference.
10.07.2011 - Con goles de
Radamel Falcao (´14 y ´28 penal), Colombia venció (2-0)
a Bolivia en el
Estadio Brigadier Estanislao López (Santa Fe) y se aseguró el primer
puesto del Grupo A.
Dominando el juego desde los 15 minutos, Colombia pudo efectivizar su superioridad en la red (ya)
antes del entretiempo (
Falcao ´14 y ´28).
The Colorado Rapids are undefeated when Scott Palguta scores.
Admittedly, the reserve defender has only scored twice in his career, with both goals coming
this season. Each strike, however, has been the winner in 2-1 decisions for the Rapids (6-5-9, 27
points).
Palguta, who came on when Danny Earls couldn't continue after 23 minutes, was in the right place
at the right time to stroke home a rebound from a Conor Casey header and put the Rapids up 2-0 on
the visiting Vancouver Whitecaps on Saturday night.
