Former Inter Allies midfielder Gershon Koffie scored a wonder goal on his 100th MLS appearance for Vancouver Whitecaps in a 2-1 win over Real Salt Lake.

He was named the Budweiser Man of the Match.

The goal was Koffie’s first of the season, and fittingly, it came on a night he started his 100th MLS regular season match.

That makes the Ghanaian the first player to start 100 regular season matches in a Whitecaps FC uniform.

“First of all, I’m proud of the club, the organization, the people, the fans, and the city and to even be here at all,” Koffie told whitecapsfc.com.

“For me to start 100 games, it’s because of them. Without them, I couldn’t do it. I’m very appreciative for what they’re doing.”

Koffie is one of the longest-serving members of Vancouver Whitecaps FC.

He’s been with the club since day one of the MLS era – and even before that when he joined from Inter Allies back in 2010.
