Brian White scores twice, Whitecaps rally to tie LAFC 2-2 and extend unbeaten streak to 11
Brian White scored on a header in the 70th minute and the Vancouver Whitecaps rallied to tie LAFC 2-2 on Sunday to extend their unbeaten streak to 11 games across all competitions.
The Whitecaps (8-1-3) lead all MLS teams with 27 points and hold a five-point edge over Minnesota in the Western Conference. They are 6-0-5 during the streak.
On the tying goal, second-half substitution Ali Ahmed headed the ball into the center of the box and White headed it into the net. White also scored in the 26th minute to pull Vancouver within a goal.
White is tied for the MLS goals lead with eight and has 13 goals across all competitions. He returned to the lineup Sunday after missing a victory last week over Real Salt Lake because of a tight hamstring.
Mark Delgado opened the scoring for Los Angeles (5-4-3) in the eighth minute, and Denis Bouanga connected on a penalty kick in the 19th.

Oilers at Panthers Stanley Cup Final Game 4 odds, picks: Will Connor McDavid step up?
Games 1 and 2 of the Stanley Cup Final were as even as it gets. The Oilers' Game 1 comeback win in overtime changed the tone of the rematch series after they went down 3-0 to Florida last June. Then the Panthers pushed back with a double-overtime win in Game 2 and a 6-1 drubbing in Game 3. Now, Edmonton must dig deep to even the series before heading back to Canada. Advertisement Panthers lead series 2-1 Series odds: Panthers -250, Oilers +200 When the series shifted from Edmonton to Florida for Game 3, the reigning champs took over: The Panthers won every battle. They scored three five-on-five goals and had the special-teams edge on both ends of the ice. In net, Sergei Bobrovsky stood tall, saving 1.3 goals above expected. Stuart Skinner, across the way, was completely exposed and responded poorly to his workload before getting the hook. The Panthers wear down most teams. They grind them down along the boards, create chaos in the middle and physically walk the line in a way that infuriates opponents. The Oilers were shaky coming into Game 3 as a result, and quickly became unglued. So, how will the Oilers respond? Connor McDavid has to break through the Aleksander Barkov matchup, especially now that the Panthers' first line made an impact on the scoresheet. Leon Draisaitl has to find more shooting lanes after not attempting a single shot in Game 3. And Edmonton needs to revitalize a commitment to team defense that helped the Oilers get this far.
