Vancouver Whitecaps FC set their MLS-era attendance record on Saturday night, welcoming a sold-out crowd of 53,957 fans to BC Place for their epic victory over LAFC in the Audi 2025 MLS Cup Playoffs.
After a 2-2 draw where the Whitecaps got first-half goals from Emmanuel Sabbi and Mathías Laborda , they won 4-3 in penalty kicks to reach the club's first-ever Western Conference Final. Laborda scored the game-winning PK, setting off raucous celebrations for arguably the club's biggest-ever game.
By winning the Western Conference Semifinal, Vancouver will meet San Diego FC or Minnesota United FC in the next round on Nov. 29. That winner advances to MLS Cup presented by Audi on Dec. 6.
