Vancouver Whitecaps FC completed their USL First Division regular season campaign in fine style after a thrilling 3-2 victory away to Seattle Sounders on Saturday evening.
--
Whitecaps head coach Teitur Thordarson made two changes to the side that started last Saturday's 1-0 victory at home to Canadian rivals Montreal Impact. After missing the last four games with a leg injury, Wesley Charles returned to the Vancouver starting XI, as the Saint Vincent and the Grenadines international replaced the injured Geordie Lyall in the centre of the Whitecaps backline. In attack, Addlery came in for Charles Gbeke to partner top goalscorer Eduardo Sebrango up front. Among the Whitecaps substitutes was Japanese defender Takashi Hirano, who returned to the 18-man squad after missing last weekend's game with a foot injury.
--
It was a sensational turnaround by the Whitecaps, who introduced Hirano to proceedings on 62 minutes after Nolly easily saved a Gardner free kick.

• Centre-half returns to lineup - The Vancouver Sun
［Club HP］ ＊The Vancouver Sunはシアトル戦のプレビューを掲載しています。平野選手は完全に回復しているがプレーオフに備えてベンチ入りしないのではないかと伝えているようです。
Left-back Takashi Hirano is also close to full fitness again and will likely come off the bench to play some part in Washington. Only centre-half Omar Jarun (suspension) and Georgie Lyall (groin injury) are unavailable.
