CHESTER, Pa. (AP) -- Vancouver's stout defense was sharp once

again and the Whitecaps remained unbeaten with a scoreless draw

against the Philadelphia Union on Saturday.

The Whitecaps (2-0-2) haven't allowed a goal in their first four

MLS matches, encompassing 360 minutes. The league record for

scoreless stretch to open the season is 421 set by the New York

Red Bulls in 2007.

Vancouver forward Sebastien Le Toux, Philadelphia's career

leader with 25 goals, received a rousing ovation from the crowd

when his name was announced during the starting lineups. It was

his first game back since he was traded in the offseason.

The Union (0-3-1) picked up their first point this season

following three straight losses. Philadelphia, Montreal and

Toronto FC are the three remaining winless teams in the league.
