The Vancouver Whitecaps delivered a convincing 2-nil win over FC Edmonton in the second leg of the Canadian Cup semi-final. With the win, the Caps move on to the final against the Montreal Impact, who embarrassed Toronto FC 6-0 in the other semi.
I’m sure Chris Withers will have more to say about the match, but here are a few shots I captured at the game.

Hi Alexander… Have you talked to Adrian about the call that preceded my shot here? I’d love to hear his take on the picture.
He wasn’t happy with the call but he said “it is what it is”.
