A sense of relief washed over Allianz Field last night as the Loons secured their first set of points in the 2021 season after 5 games played. Ramón Ábila’s lone goal off a header in the 72’ was enough to see off the Vancouver Whitecaps.

Our photographers were on hand to capture the moments as the Loons have started to turn things around in an attempt to revamp the season.
