Whitecaps’ Jacobson settling into offensive role ahead of visit to Colorado
Soft-spoken and usually a man of few words, Andrew Jacobson didn’t want to spend a lot of time talking about his stunning goal.
No, he hadn’t seen a replay, adding quickly the strike that helped the Vancouver Whitecaps earn their first road points of the season in Saturday’s 2-1 win over Montreal would be meaningless if they didn’t continue on the same path.
But what the veteran midfielder was happy to discuss was his two-year-old son Henry’s reaction to dad’s exploits while watching the game on television back in Vancouver.
“He was running around screaming,” Jacobson said with a proud chuckle after training this week. “My wife has it on video. It was pretty cute.”
