2004 W-League Soccer Final New Jersey Wildcats ticket stub vs Vancouver
Ex.-NM used condition.
After missing out for the first time in 2003, the newly re-branded Vancouver Whitecaps FC women were back in the W-League Final Four. A sensational undefeated regular season (13W-0L-1D) saw the ‘Caps exact revenge on Seattle Sounders women from the prior season and defeat them 1-0 in the Western Conference Final.
The 2004 W-League Championship Final Four, hosted by Ottawa Fury, was arguably the most competitive in league history, as the four teams combined for only one total loss between them heading into their meetings. For the ‘Caps, that meant facing the undefeated Chicago Cobras (12W-0L-1D) in the semifinals. A tight 0-0 match at halftime was broken open in the first 15 minutes of the second half as Andrea Neil and Amber Allen scored to give the ‘Caps a 2-0 lead. Chicago would get one back, but the ‘Caps held on for a 2-1 win.
In the final, Vancouver had to play another undefeated team in New Jersey Wildcats (17W-0L-0D, including playoffs), who had beaten hosts Ottawa in the other semifinal. With both teams intent on keeping the other off the scoreboard, the match finished 0-0 through regulation and extra-time. In the end, Whitecaps FC goalkeeper Erin McLeod played the hero, making a pair of stops before slotting home the winning spot kick herself as the Whitecaps FC women became the first Canadian team to win the W-League title.
