Vancouver FC beat provincial rivals Pacific FC 2-1 in Canadian Premier League action on Vancouver Island Thursday.
Thomas Meilleur-Giguère opened the scoring for Pacific FC in the 38th minute. But the visitors equalized shortly before half time when Alejandro Díaz scored in the 40th minute. And Elage Bah grabbed the full three points for Vancouver FC with the winner in the 82nd minute.
“We’ve shown it a few times this season, even in our first game, we down 1-0 in the first half and we ended up winning the game,” Elage Bah said after the game. “I think we have a pretty good mentality when it comes to playing from behind.
“And we’re almost comfortable in those situations, not in a bad way, but we’re not beating ourselves up after one goal, we try to get after the next one, and prove that we can score like we did today.”
