The Third Sub Episode 237: Whitecaps quickly finding feet to start 2025 MLS, CCC campaigns

In Episode 237 of the Third Sub Podcast, Alexandre Gangue-Ruzic and Samuel Rowan dive into a busy stretch for the Vancouver Whitecaps as they continue a strong start to their 2025 season.

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 as they continue to navigate the start of their 2025 campaign.

First, they dive into the latest Whitecaps matches, which included a big MLS victory over the LA Galaxy on the weekend, one that was sandwiched by a big 2-0 win over Deportivo Saprissa in the second leg of their first round Concacaf Champions Cup tie and a 1-1 draw vs. CF Monterrey in the first leg of their Round of 16 CCC tie.

With three strong performances in those matches, the Whitecaps have done well to find their feet under new manager Jesper Sørensen, and they dive into why that has been, as his approach has seemed to resonate quickly with this group, one who seems to be enjoying their soccer at the moment.

Now, they get set for some big tests – first, a home clash against CF Montréal awaits in MLS play, before a trip to Mexico to play Monterrey in the second leg of the CCC tie will come a few days later.

There, look for the Whitecaps to keep building on what they’ve shown so far, continuing this strong start to the year.
