Know Before You Go: MNUFC vs. Vancouver Whitecaps FC | Minnesota United FC

2022-10-08 17:32:58 By : Mr. Tom Yang

Decision Day is once again living up to its name, as the Loons take on the Whitecaps to determine who will make to the postseason. In their most recent matchup, MNUFC took down the Canadian side in a convincing 1-3 win on the road. While the Loons have a slight historic edge, Vancouver is not a team to take lightly. The Whitecaps have won their last three games, scoring seven goals and only conceding one. However, with everything at stake and perhaps the largest crowd in Allianz Field history, MNUFC is sure to have a hefty home-field advantage. The boys in Black and Blue will need to bring a heightened sense of determination and desperation to the pitch on Sunday if they want to secure a result, and with it, a spot in the playoffs. Read on to learn more about all of the exciting things to expect if you're coming to the game on Sunday, including pregame festivities, Fan Appreciation giveaways, a semi-strict dress code and a whole lot more.
