For the third time in four years, the Cascadia Cup will reside in Vancouver.
With Vancouver's stunning 4-1 rout of Portland, the Whitecaps not only took the Cup, but also kept the Timbers on the outside of the Audi 2016 MLS Cup Playoffs.
Created by the supporters of the Sounders, Whitecaps and Portland Timbers, the Cascadia Cup has been around since 2004. It was contested by all three teams in USL until 2009, when the Sounders made their MLS debut. The Whitecaps and Timbers continued battling for the Cup in the lower divisions until 2011, when both moved up into MLS, allowing the Sounders to get back in on the competition.
Vancouver has won six Cascadia Cups, one more than Seattle and two more than Portland. Both Vancouver and Seattle have won the Cup three times during the trophy’s MLS era, while the Timbers lifted the lone Cascadia Cup of their MLS existence in 2012.
The teams will meet a total of nine times this year, with each club playing the others three times during the MLS regular season.
