Match report
St. Louis City and Vancouver Whitecaps finished 0-0 in Major League Soccer on Wednesday, October 14, with a 0-0 draw. The half-time score was 0-0, and the match ended without a goal at Citypark. The final score leaves the attacking figures, rather than a goal, as the clearest evidence of how the game played out.
How it unfolded
There were no goals to separate the sides, and the score remained level from half-time through to the final whistle. Neither team found a finish to change the outcome, so the match closed as it had stood at the interval.
The numbers
Vancouver Whitecaps had 65% possession and recorded 6 shots. St. Louis City had 35% possession and recorded 0 shots. The shots-on-target figures were 0 for Vancouver and 0 for St. Louis. Those figures leave the visitors with attempts in the match but no effort on target, while St. Louis did not record a shot. That is a stark account of the home side’s attacking output, without suggesting a goal threat that the numbers do not show.
The expected-goals figures were 0.45 for Vancouver and 0 for St. Louis. Vancouver’s figure records some attacking potential, but it did not become a goal or a shot on target. St. Louis ended with no expected goals, consistent with its absence of recorded attempts. The corner count was 4 for Vancouver and 0 for St. Louis. Overall, the statistical record points to Vancouver having the possession and attempts, but neither side produced a finish. The draw therefore came with a clear contrast in the teams’ attacking involvement, without a corresponding difference on the scoreboard.
