Listen Later

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, CPL, League 1 BC and more. 

To begin, they take a look at the latest Whitecaps match, which came this past weekend in Seattle. There, they made history, winning their first game in the Emerald City since 2016, snapping a lengthy winless drought at Lumen Field with a 2-0 result over their Cascadia Cup rivals, the Seattle Sounders. 

Thanks to that, they resumed their strong start to the season after a setback last weekend against the LA Galaxy, doing so off the back of a return to basics defensively, along with some intriguing tweaks elsewhere in the lineup. 

Now, they head into one of their biggest matchups of this young season, an inter-conference matchup against a red-hot New York Red Bulls side, one that may be the stiffest test this 'Caps team has faced to date, and Alex and Sam share why they think that is. 

Then, to round off the Whitecaps chatter, they take a look at a bit of surprise transfer news, as the Whitecaps made a primary transfer window deadline signing, bringing in Australian wing back Giuseppe Bovalina to fortify their ranks out wide, so they see what to expect from Bovalina. 

From there, they take a look at what stood out from around MLS this weekend, as well as what to look forward to in the next matchday, in "Around MLS in 5". 

Continuing on, they take a look over at the Canadian Premier League, where the two BC teams, Pacific and Vancouver FC, maintained their hot starts to the CPL season with wins this weekend, as they both sit with two wins from two games so far. 

Lastly, they round things off with some important BC Soccer news, as the Canadian Championship started this week, a new League 1 BC season is back this weekend, and the Whitecaps women's side is set to play in an intriguing new continental competition later this summer.
