The Vancouver Whitecaps secured a 4‑2 victory over San Diego FC on Saturday night, handing the California side its third home loss of the season.
Brian White was the standout, netting two goals and adding two assists, the latter of which brought his season tally to the 10th goal.
Veteran midfielder Thomas Müller, in just his 19th league appearance, orchestrated the attack with three assists, underscoring his early impact in the MLS.
A Strategic Pause for the World Cup
The league will now take a break for the FIFA World Cup, with play resuming on July 16, a pause that could affect team rhythm heading into the second half of the season.
Vancouver’s road record improved to 3‑1‑2, while San Diego fell to 3‑3‑3 at home, a result that could influence playoff positioning as the campaign unfolds.
