Vancouver Southsiders president Peter Czimmermann tells The National about the moment the group of Whitecaps supporters travelled to San Diego and watched the team advance to the MLS Cup final for the first time in the club’s history.

U.S. men’s national team goalkeeper Matt Freese kept three clean sheets in five playoff appearances. Meanwhile, Rocco Ríos Novo has two shutouts in five games for Inter Miami. Vancouver Whitecaps’ Yohei Takaoka has just one in the playoffs ahead of the final.
