Episode 677 – The AFTN Soccer Show (Daydreaming - Whitecaps stay top at midway point, Jesse Marsch, Ali Ahmed, World Cup One Year Countdown)
We’re back with another AFTN Soccer Show packed full of Vancouver Whitecaps, Major League Soccer, FIFA World Cup, and Canadian national team chat and interviews.
Vancouver Whitecaps' 11-match unbeaten run in MLS came to end in Columbus on Saturday after the Crew dispatched them 2-1. We look back at the main talking points coming out of the match, including the continued absences of key players and the blooding of a couple of homegrowns. The match marked the midway point of the 'Caps' MLS regular season and we delve into the fantastic first half of what is shaping up to be a momentous year for the table toppers.
It's an exciting time for football in Vancouver and the one year countdown to the 2026 FIFA World Cup has now begun. We look at how prepared Vancouver is to host an event of this magnitude and hear from the legendary Christine Sinclair, Vancouver Mayor Ken Sim, and BC's Minister for Sport Spencer Chandra Herbert.
Canada are preparing for next year's World Cup at this year's Gold Cup, which got underway this past weekend. We chat about Canada's chances, and hear from head coach Jesse Marsch, Whitecaps winger Ali Ahmed, and Sporting KC defender Zorhan Bassong.
All of this plus we talk FIFA Club World Cup, World Cup 2026 qualification, and music-wise, a solo Pete Shelley continues his residency as our Album of the Month, we've two Britpop songs from Menswear and Powder, and a Columbus Crew classic features in Wavelength.
