Vancouver Whitecaps and Toronto FC set to renew heated rivalry
Vancouver Whitecaps' Nicolas Mezquida lies on the field after losing the Canadian Championship soccer final to Toronto FC on aggregate in Vancouver, B.C., on June 29, 2016. It was a finish that will never sit quite right with Carl Robinson. The Vancouver Whitecaps were moments away from their second consecutive Canadian Championship last June when rivals Toronto FC heaved a hopeful, desperate ball into the penalty area. Before anyone could blink the ball was blasted into the roof of Vancouver's net and Toronto had a priceless away goal in a 2-1 loss that flipped the two-game aggregate series on its head in the fifth minute of stoppage time to hand the visitors the national title. Vancouver and Toronto will renew hostilities Saturday on the same pitch in the clubs' first meeting since that wild encounter where both teams experienced a range of emotions.
