We're back with another AFTN Soccer Show packed full of Vancouver Whitecaps, Major League Soccer, and CONCACAF Champions Cup chat, and we're joined by AFTN writer Felipe Vallejo again to do it all this episode. It's been a good start to the Jesper Sorensen era in Vancouver. Advancing in the Champions Cup with an aggregate win over Saprissa and a dominant dismantling of Portland in MLS action has certainly put a spring in the steps of those of a blue and white persuasion. We take a look at the takeaways from both matches and look ahead to the visit of the LA Galaxy in MLS action and Mexican giants CF Monterrey in the next round of the cup next week. Whitecaps CEO and Sporting Director Axel Schuster held a media roundtable on Wednesday. We bring you that in full and unpack some of the main talking points around the make up of the roster, new additions, the latest on the sale, the MLS schedule, and more. All of this, plus Pop Will Eat Itself wrap up their residency as our Album of the Month, there's Norwegian Oi in this episode's Wavelength, and another Britpop song. Here's the rundown for the main segments from the episode: 01.26: Intro 06.57: Whitecaps see off Saprissa in Champions Cup 31.15: Tough Monterrey test now awaits in Round of 16 44.15: Whitecaps destroy Timbers in MLS season opener 82.10: Axel Schuster media roundtable 128.00: Unpacking Axel 145.40: Wavelength - Premier League - Kick Off Time

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. To begin, they dive into the latest out of the Whitecaps, who kicked off their 2025 slate of competitive matches with a pair of games over the past week. First, they started with the Whitecaps' first match, which was the first leg of their first-round Concacaf Champions Cup tie against CD Saprissa, coming down in San José, Costa Rica. Unfortunately, Jesper Sørensen's first match as Whitecaps head coach didn't go as planned - his side fell 2-1 after a dramatic late winner from the hosts, putting them at a disadvantage heading into the second leg. Despite that late heartbreak, however, the Whitecaps did well to pick themselves up in time for their MLS season opener just a few days later up in Oregon against their rivals, the Portland Timbers. There, they were able to capitalize on an early red card and picked up a dominant 4-1 win, headlined by Jayden Nelson's magical one-goal, three-assist effort, to give them their first opening day win since 2021. Now, they get set for another big pair of games, this time at home - the second leg clash of their tie against Saprissa in Champions Cup action, and their home opener against the defending MLS Cup champions, the LA Galaxy.It won't be easy, as playing this many games early in a season can always prove to bring its challenges, but they look at how the Whitecaps can navigate these two matches and emerge on the other side in a good position to continue their Champions Cup journey while pushing themselves up MLS's Western Conference standings.

We're back with another AFTN Soccer Show packed full of Vancouver Whitecaps, Major League Soccer, and CONCACAF Champions Cup chat, and we're joined by AFTN writer Felipe Vallejo to do it all this episode. The Whitecaps finally played their first competitive game of 2025, and while the end result of the Champions Cup clash with Saprissa wasn't what they were hoping for down in Costa Rica, there were a lot of positives and and an away goal to take from the tie. We delve into the match, look ahead to the MLS season opener in Portland and hear from 'Caps coach Jesper Sorensen and Timbers boss Phil Neville. As the new MLS season gets underway, we preview what is shaping up to be an interesting and unpredictable Western Conference, with some clear standout teams, some movers and shakers, and some teams that we just don't know what to expect from them yet this season.

We're back with another AFTN Soccer Show packed full of Vancouver Whitecaps and Canadian soccer chat. The Whitecaps' owners dropped the bombshell announcement last week that the club were up for sale. That's naturally led to a lot of questions, concerns, worry, and more for supporters. We're joined by Harjeet Johal to delve into a lot of those questions in this episode, including will the team stay in Vancouver, who might the new owners be, does the lack of their own stadium and tangible assets affect things, what does it mean for the search for a new head coach and more. Plus we hear some thoughts from Whitecaps CEO Axel Schuster about the sale. In happier Whitecaps news, we look at the draw for them and the other Canadian teams in the 2025 CONCACAF Champions Cup and Canadian Championship, which has thrown up some pre-Christmas crackers for the season to come. Plus we hear from Cavalry President Ian Allison, as he explains why they need to play their Pumas tie on Vancouver Island, and music-wise we continue our 2024 Festive 15 with the songs that came in at the numbers 7 to 9 positions.

(Aniversario del Estadio Ricardo Saprissa) «En vida, Ricardo Saprissa Aymá recibió un sinnúmero de homenajes reconociendo su trayectoria deportiva. Estando todavía en España, el deporte catalán realizó una serie de encuentros de tenis, fútbol, hockey sobre pasto y béisbol en su honor. Ya en suelo costarricense, si bien el más significativo se produjo en los primeros meses de 1966, cuando el Presidente de la República, Francisco J. Orlich, le nombró Insigne Deportista, y tres años después fue incorporado a la Galería del Deporte Costarricense como miembro fundador, para don Ricardo el máximo reconocimiento recibido en toda su vida había sido que el estadio [en San José, Costa Rica] llevara su nombre. Ese era su mayor orgullo.... »Aunque la obra no llegaría a terminarse del todo por falta de recursos, se convertiría en uno de los principales estadios de Centroamérica.... Para don Ricardo era importante que el estadio no tuviera pista olímpica, que los aficionados estuvieran prácticamente encima de los jugadores para meterle presión al equipo visitante, algo que había experimentado de sobra cuando defendía los colores del Español de Barcelona en el estadio Sarriá. »No tenía idea hasta qué punto ese detalle convertiría al estadio Ricardo Saprissa en una sede sólida para la selección nacional en las eliminatorias mundialistas, y para el mismo Deportivo Saprissa en los torneos locales y de la CONCACAF.... »Tras su muerte [en 1990], surgieron algunas iniciativas para otorgarle el grado de Benemérito de la Patria.... El primer proyecto... [dice, entre otras cosas:] »“Al recordarlo, se le describe como un hombre perseverante, sereno y humilde, lleno de paz [y de] amor, y visionario. Fundamentó, como uno de los principales pioneros en el deporte costarricense, las ligas menores, donde los niños a temprana edad se preparaban desde ‘mosquitos’ pasando por todo el proceso de ligas menores, hasta llegar a ser las estrellas de la primera división. »”Nunca se interesó por el dinero, porque la satisfacción para don Ricardo fue su ferviente sentimiento de la labor cumplida. ¿No es ese acaso el propósito del hombre en su paso por la tierra? Los hombres fuimos creados a imagen y semejanza de Dios. ¿Por qué nos cuesta tanto entonces cumplir con nuestro destino? se preguntaba.”»1 Estos pasajes tomados de la biografía escrita por el costarricense José Antonio Pastor Pacheco, titulada Ricardo Saprissa, el campeón total: Su vida y legado, nos llevan a pensar que, al empeñarse en construir un estadio en que los espectadores en las gradas estuvieran muy cerca de los jugadores en la cancha, don Ricardo no hacía más que seguir el ejemplo de su Creador. Pues Dios se empeñó en que el lema de las Sagradas Escrituras, en las que se relata el desarrollo de su plan maestro para la humanidad, fuera la frase «Dios con nosotros»,2 la cual personificó al ponerle por nombre Emanuel a su Hijo Jesucristo cuando lo envió al mundo a vivir entre nosotros.3 Y lo hizo precisamente porque Él no quería ser un espectador alejado de su creación sino siempre estar cerca de cada uno que se lo permitiera en el campo de juego de la vida. Carlos ReyUn Mensaje a la Concienciawww.conciencia.net 1 José Antonio Pastor Pacheco, Ricardo Saprissa, el campeón total: Su vida y legado (San José, Costa Rica: Ediciones Jadine, 2010), pp. 106,109,100. 2 Gn 48:21; Dt 2:7; 1S 16:18; 18:14,28; 1R 8:56; 1Cr 11:10; 22:18; 2Cr 15:2; Sal 23:4; 46:7,11; Is 7:14; Jer 42:11; Am 5:14; Hag 1:13; 2:4; Zac 8:23; Mt 1:23; 28:20; Jn 14:16-17 3 Is 7:14; Mt 1:23
Javier Hernández se perderá el regreso de la Liga Mx, por lesión y no viajará con Chivas para medirse a Tigres. ¿Qué futuro espera al jugador en Guadalajara? Germán Berterame podría ser convocado a selección mexicana, para la próxima fecha FIFA. Arrancó la semana 4 de la pretemporada en la NFL. Alejandra Valencia denuncia que le fue reducida la beca por parte de CONADE. Definidos cruces en el US Open. Se acerca el final de la temporada y comienzan a perfilarse favoritos a la Serie mundial. La eterna discusión, ¿quién es mejor Lionel Messi o Cristiano Ronaldo? En marcha la Copa Centroamericana, ¿hasta dónde llegarán Saprissa y Olimpia? Recordamos a Kobe Bryant.
(Aniversario de la Muerte de Ricardo Saprissa) «Gracias, don Ricardo.» Así se titula, y así concluye merecidamente, la presentación del libro que lleva por título Ricardo Saprissa, el campeón total: Su vida y legado. «Cuando hablo con personas que conocieron a don Ricardo Saprissa —escribe en la presentación Daniel Sánchez Llibre en calidad de presidente del Real Club Deportivo Español, club barcelonés y catalán— puedo llegar a comprender el gran recuerdo que dejó su estancia en el RCD Espanyol. »Futbolista —me dicen— de unas cualidades extraordinarias. Amigo de sus amigos y todo un caballero tanto dentro como fuera del campo de juego.... »Aquí en Cantalunya, al margen del fútbol, [se] destacó como un gran jugador de hockey sobre hierba, e incluso llegó a jugar el Campeonato de España con el Real Club de Polo.... La figura de don Ricardo no deja de sorprenderme. Fue olímpico con España en París (1924), formando pareja con Flaquer en la modalidad de tenis. Algo fantástico para un hombre nacido en El Salvador, afincado en Costa Rica y considerado hijo adoptivo en Catalunya. »Y como no podía ser de otra manera, Saprissa participó en el logro más importante conseguido por el club en sus primeros veintinueve años de existencia. Él estuvo presente en la final de Valencia, la “del agua”. Allí contra los elementos... lograron doblegar al poderoso Real Madrid, [conquistando así su primer campeonato de España]. Fue una gesta que el espanyolismo de entonces, y también el actual, nunca olvidará. Como tampoco quedará en el olvido la figura de Ricardo Saprissa.»1 Aun las personas menos respetables llegarían a respetar, décadas después, la figura de don Ricardo como presidente del Deportivo Saprissa, en San José, Costa Rica. Cuenta su biógrafo costarricense José Antonio Pastor Pacheco que «tras una agotadora reunión, don Ricardo llegó a su casa en horas de la madrugada. Dejó su auto encendido y entró a abrir el garaje. Iba en camino cuando sonó el teléfono. Era un compañero de [la] directiva que deseaba aclarar algún punto. Conversaron unos minutos, pero al colgar, don Ricardo entró al baño y luego se fue a dormir, olvidando por completo su carro. »Al día siguiente, al entrar al garaje para ir a trabajar, recordó que su jeep estaba en la calle. O al menos eso esperaba... »Como era de esperar, durante la madrugada apareció alguien que se marchó feliz de la vida en el carro y sin esperar al dueño. No obstante, cuando el asunto llegó a los medios de comunicación, rápidamente apareció el vehículo con una pequeña nota en el asiento que decía más o menos lo siguiente: “Perdone, don Ricardo; no sabía que fuera suyo.” Tal el respeto que se le tuvo siempre.»2 Lo cierto es que tanto los más como los menos respetables hicieron lo justo al tratar así a don Ricardo, llevando a la práctica el siguiente consejo del apóstol Pablo: «Al que deban respeto, muéstrenle respeto; al que deban honor; ríndanle honor.»3 De modo que no nos queda más que unirnos a ese sentir y decir: «Gracias, don Ricardo.» Gracias por llevar una vida ejemplar que, al igual que el maestro Gamaliel, el discípulo Ananías y el centurión Cornelio en el primer siglo de la era cristiana, mereció el respeto de quienes tuvieron el privilegio de conocerlo,4 y así servirnos de ejemplo en el siglo veintiuno.
