To penalties we go!

Vancouver and Los Angeles cannot be separated after over two hours of soccer. Penalty kicks will decide who goes to the final of the MLS Cup Playoffs.

CROSSBAR TWICE!

The game is somehow still level after LAFC hit the woodwork twice. 😱

Extra-time is needed.

Vancouver Whitecaps FC and LAFC are tied at 2-2 following a superb free-kick goal from Son Heung-min in added time.

GOAL!

The deficit is cut to one. Calamity in front of net and Son Heung-min gets the last touch to guide the ball into the net. After a quick video review for offside, the goal stands.
