02/28 23:00 CST Thomas Mller, Brian White, Yohei Takaoka lead Whitecaps to 3-0 victory over Toronto Thomas Mller, Brian White, Yohei Takaoka lead Whitecaps to 3-0 victory over Toronto VANCOUVER, British Columbia (AP) --- Thomas Mller scored twice and Brian White added a goal in a 22-minute span of the first half and Yohei Takaoka finished with a second straight clean sheet in the Vancouver Whitecaps' 3-0 victory over Toronto FC on Saturday night. Mller ignited the Whitecaps with a penalty-kick goal in the 25th minute, then made it 2-0 with a goal 12 minutes later. White capped the scoring two minutes into stoppage time with an unassisted netter. It was White's 80th career goal for Vancouver in all competitions. Mller's PK came after Toronto's Walker Zimmerman fouled Aziel Jackson. His second goal came with assists from Mathias Laborda and Sebastian Berhalter in the 37th minute. Takaoka finished with three saves for the Whitecaps (2-0-0) --- one-week after a two-save effort led to a 1-0 victory over visiting Real Salt Lake to begin the season. Jackson scored the lone goal. Luka Gavran saved two shots for Toronto in his 18th career start. Toronto lost 3-2 to FC Dallas in its opener, beginning with two road matches for a fourth straight season. The Whitecaps are 5-0-4 in their last nine matchups with Toronto, which hasn't won in Vancouver since March 2017.

Up next Vancouver: At Portland Timbers on Saturday. Toronto: At FC Cincinnati on Sunday. ___ AP soccer: https://apnews.com/soccer
