IN CASE YOU MISSED IT
In the build-up to Vancouver’s opening goal, Teibert played a key role in breaking Dallas’ press and starting the transition through a neat interplay with José Aja and Alphonso Davies.
QUOTABLE
“Russell is a terrific footballer. He's good with the ball. I wanted him and Felipe to connect a lot of passes, keep possession of the ball for us, and they did a fantastic job. Credit to both of those guys.” – Whitecaps FC head coach Carl Robinson
