SAN DIEGO - The Vancouver Whitecaps have secured a place in the MLS Cup final for the first time in franchise history. They will face Inter Miami, led by Lionel Messi, in Florida on December 6. In a decisive match on Saturday, Brian White scored two goals, contributing significantly to the Whitecaps' 3-1 win over San Diego FC in the Western Conference final. The victory came after a strong performance, where Vancouver took control of the game in the second half. The Whitecaps also benefited from an own goal by San Diego goalkeeper Pablo Sisniega, who was sent off with a red card in the 79th minute for a foul on Vancouver midfielder Ryan Gauld. Vancouver finished the regular season with an impressive record of 18 wins, 7 losses, and 9 draws, placing them second in the Western Conference. They previously eliminated FC Dallas and Los Angeles FC in the playoffs before facing San Diego. This marks a remarkable season for the Whitecaps, who have already claimed the Canadian Championship title in October and reached the final of the CONCACAF Champions Cup in June. The upcoming match against Inter Miami will be a historic moment for the team, as it is the first time a Vancouver club has competed for the MLS Cup in 45 years. The Whitecaps are looking to build on their recent successes as they prepare for the championship match against one of the league's most formidable teams.
