VANCOUVER, British Columbia (Interstat) — The Vancouver Whitecaps opened their MLS season with a 3-0 victory over FC Dallas on Sunday at BC Place Stadium. Daniel Ríos opened the scoring in the 43rd minute and Kenji Cabrera added a second goal in the 83rd. Thomas Müller also scored for the Whitecaps. The result defied a pregame projection from Interstat that had forecast a 1-1 draw. The match was marred by five yellow cards, including four in second-half stoppage time. Vancouver begins the campaign 1-0-0, while FC Dallas starts 0-1-0.
