I was pleasantly surprised how effective Cameron was who had a part on both goals.
As for grass-gate, overblown issue and a non factor in the match.
Here is a visual example during warmups of the toupee special after the Sounders/Whitecaps. Credit to the CLink staff who worked around the clock for a week to make it as playable as possible.

I'm not sure a warmup picture really proves much, that's obviously when it was going to be at its best. The decision to put a surface that was already going to be less than ideal under more strain by playing an extra game on it is just puzzling.
