VANCOUVER — Ryan Gauld returned to the starting lineup and scored his 50th goal as a Whitecaps player as Vancouver comfortably beat LA Galaxy 3-0 on Wednesday evening at BC Place.
Gauld scored in the 57th minute, the Scotsman riding two tackles, before nestling the ball in the corner of JT Marcinkowski’s net.
