In Episode 214 of the Third Sub Podcast, Alexandre Gangue-Ruzic and Samuel Rowan dive into the latest out of the Vancouver Whitecaps, Vancouver FC, Pacific FC, League 1 BC and more.
Welcome back to another episode of the Third Sub Podcast!
In this episode, Alex and Sam are back, as usual, this time to chat all things Vancouver Whitecaps, Vancouver FC, Pacific FC and League 1 BC.
To begin, they look at the latest out of the Whitecaps, who fell to the Houston Dynamo 4-3 in MLS action a week prior, marking their last league match in over a month. That, of course, is because of the Leagues Cup tournament, in which the Whitecaps beat LAFC on penalties in their opening match, but not before a strange home friendly with Hollywood darlings Wrexham of Wales.
They look at what they learned from those three matches, in which some players tested out some new roles, while others fared well in rare auditions.
From there, they look ahead to the Whitecaps’ next match, a home clash against Liga MX side Club Tijuana back in Leagues Cup play, in which the Whitecaps can advance to the knockout rounds for a second straight year with a draw or win.
Continuing on, they take a look at the latest out of the BC CPL teams, who have slumped through July, setting up a pivotal month of August. They look at what’s ailed them, as Vancouver FC have dropped to fifth place and Pacific to sixth, and see what they’ll need to do in order to turn things around.
Lastly, they dive into the latest out of League 1 BC, where the men’s and women’s division are getting set to play their league finals this Sunday at Swangard Stadium, with the Vancouver Whitecaps set to face Burnaby in the women’s division final, and the TSS Rovers set to face Altitude in the men’s division final.
