White nets a pair, Vite scores in 90th minute as Whitecaps rally on the road to beat RSL 3-2
SANDY, Utah (AP) — Brian White scored two goals — his second multi-goal game in his last three and third this season — and Pedro Vite scored from just outside the area in the 90th minute to help the Vancouver Whitecaps rally and beat Real Salt Lake 3-2 on Saturday night in Major League Soccer action. Vancouver (10-1-4) is unbeaten in nine consecutive matches dating to a 3-1 loss to Chicago on March 22. Vite bent a shot inside the back post to give the Whitecaps their first lead. Zavier Gozo scored his first career goal in the first minute. The 18-year-old in his third MLS season ran onto a ball played ahead by Diego Luna and, from the left side of the area, slipped a shot between the legs of defender Tristan Blackmon and inside the near post. Luna made it 2-0 when he scored his fifth goal in the last six games in the fourth minute. Dominik Marczuk played a cross from the right side that was deflected by goalkeeper Yohei Takaoka, but Luna was there to put away the rebound with a one-touch finish to make it 2-0. Salt Lake scored two goals in the first five minutes of a match for the first time in club history and is the first team in MLS to do so since the New York Red Bulls in 2018. White put away a header off a corner kick played in by Sebastian Berhalter in the 20th minute and converted from the penalty spot in the 25th to make it 2-2. Rafael Cabral finished with three saves, including a diving stop in the 64th minute to deny White a hat trick and keep the game tied at 2-2. Takaoka stopped four shots for Vancouver. Salt Lake (4-9-2) is winless in five consecutive games, beginning with a 2-1 loss to the Whitecaps on May 3. UP NEXT Whitecaps: Host Minnesota United on Wednesday. Salt Lake: Visit Austin FC on Wednesday. ___ AP soccer: The Associated Press

Watch: Cristiano Jr Makes Portugal U-15 Debut, Makes Substitute Appearance Vs Japan
Published By : Amar Sunil Panicker Last Updated: Cristiano Ronaldo's son, Cristiano dos Santos, debuted for Portugal U-15 as they secured a 4-1 win over Japan in the Vlatko Markovic International Tournament. All-time international top scorer Cristiano Ronaldo's son, Cristiano dos Santos, made his debut for the Portugal U-15 National Team as they defeated Japan 4-1 on Tuesday in the first match of the Vlatko Markovic International Tournament. As for the game, the first few minutes were very competitive, with both teams looking to press their opponents high up. Clear-cut opportunities were scarce, although danger occasionally loomed at both goals. However, the score was broken midway through the first half. With a great pass, Lourenço Fernandes found Rafael Cabral alone and he, one-on-one with the opposing goalkeeper, made no mistake and fired a shot to make it 1-0. Portugal thus took the lead on the scoreboard, with the first clear opportunity they had (20′). — ???????????????????????????????? (@AsakyGRN) May 17, 2025 We didn't have to wait long to see another change in the score. Rafael Cabral, in the 22nd minute, once again took on the role of protagonist of the play, and in a different move, he once again showed his skills as a striker. The number 18 received the ball in the penalty area, turned on his opponent and shot into the back of the Japanese goal. Another great goal from the Portuguese striker doubled the advantage in the match. Until the end of the first half, Japan pushed up the lines and controlled the Portuguese team's quick attacks well. Even so, André Marques' goal was not threatened very often, nor with much danger, with the most notable move being a dangerous cross that almost deceived the Portuguese goalkeeper. In the second half, Japan tried to target the Portuguese goal more often, but the Portuguese goalkeeper was getting the job done. However, it was the Portuguese team that scored. Rafael Cabral fell in the area, the referee awarded a penalty and the number 18 converted it, in a truly dream afternoon for the young Portuguese international, who thus completed the hat-trick. With the score at 3-0, Japan accepted the defeat without ever stopping to look for the Portuguese goal. Portugal was already managing and promoting more debutants in the team, and one of these debutants would even score the fourth Portuguese goal. Henrique Amen, who came on in the 72nd minute, scored his first goal in the same minute as his debut, a true dream start for the young athlete. A shot that crowned an excellent quick transition by Joao Santos' team and gave the match the contours of a rout. Until the end of the match, Japan, already in injury time, managed to reduce the deficit through Toa Fujisawa. Vlatko Markovic made his international tournament debut, with moments of great brilliance and maturity from the youngest team in the National Teams, on a morning marked by many debuts. The Quinas Team will play three more matches in this competition against Greece (May 14) and England (May 16). The fourth and final match will take place on May 18, with the opponent yet to be defined. First Published: May 18, 2025, 18:29 IST
