Prior to the goal, the Whitecaps had to overcome a pair of nervy moments in the first 15 minutes in the back, that gave RSL chances, but would take neither of them. Indeed, RSL would have a Faith Piol goal disallowed for offside in the 38th minute.
The Whitecaps return to Concacaf Champions Cup play on Wednesday hosting Cartagines of Cost Rica on Wednesday night at 6:30pm PT (ONESoccer, FS2).
