The Vancouver Whitecaps will be without some major baggage as they hit the road this season.
Last year, away games quickly took on a weight for the team, said head coach Vanni Sartini. The ‘Caps battled to several draws and collected victories at home but didn’t win on the road in Major League Soccer action until June 24.
“Maybe some of them we played well, but we didn’t win for, like, the first seven or eight (away) games,” Sartini said.
