The Third Sub Episode 218: Shorthanded Whitecaps nearly surprise Dallas; Big Salish Sea Derby ahead for BC CPL teams

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 more.

To begin, they dive into the latest out of the Vancouver Whitecaps, who despite missing several key players due to injuries and international duty, were able to draw FC Dallas 0-0 at BC Place in a game they probably could've even won. 

They dive into what they learned from that one, as the Whitecaps continue to earn the respect of their opponents, which while a sign of how good this team has become, can also pose its challenges. 

After that, they look ahead to what's next for the Whitecaps, who get set to host the San Jose Earthquakes in a crucial must-win game against a side that's struggled heavily in 2024. 

From there, they take a look at the other big game in BC this weekend, and that's the Salish Sea Derby between Pacific and Vancouver at Starlight Stadium, which is a massive six-point match for both teams. 

Lastly, they take a look out of what they learned from Jesse Marsch's visit to Vancouver, as they got to hear from the Canadian Men's National Team in a special press conference held at the Whitecaps training ground, in which Marsch shared a lot of interesting details about what's next for his team, the sport in the province and much more.
