The Third Sub Episode 208: Whitecaps hit international break on a high note; BC CPL teams find mixed results

The Third Sub

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, Pacific FC, Vancouver FC, League 1 BC and more.

To begin, they dive into the latest out of the Whitecaps, who beat the Colorado Rapids to enter the June international break on a high note with back-to-back wins. They look back at what stood out from that Rapids win, which showed the importance of Damir Kreilach, the continued value of the 3-5-2 and changed the perspective some may have on the 'Caps centre back options.

From there, they take a look at the 'Caps season to date, having now played 16 games in MLS play, seeing if their hot start to the year or their quieter second quarter is a fairer indication of what this team is nearing the halfway point.

Continuing on from there, they take a look at a mixed weekend for BC's CPL teams as Pacific drew Cavalry, while Vancouver fell 2-0 to Valour.

Then, to round things off, they take a look at the latest out of League 1 BC, before wrapping up by looking at the Vancouver Whitecaps upcoming Concacaf W Champions Cup adventure, where they have the potential to play some heavy-hitters if all goes well for them this summer.
