Mls Cup Preview

We’re back with another AFTN Soccer Show packed full of Vancouver Whitecaps, Major League Soccer, and World Cup chat. And apologies in advance for Zach's echoey sound in this one, we're not sure what's happened there!The Whitecaps are heading to the MLS Cup! A dominant and controlled victory in San Diego saw the 'Caps win their first ever Western Conference title and set up a showdown in Florida against a flying Inter Miami side in Saturday's final. We look back at the main talking points coming out of the victory against San Diego, the threat Miami pose, what can be taken from the team's previous two meeting this year, and delve into all of the history-making and milestone moments from Vancouver's 2025 so far.We also look ahead some more to Friday's World Cup draw, one which clearly will be like no other with extra teams, weird regulations, and a "pre-determined random draw" that will see the full schedule with venues and kick off times not known until the day after.Music-wise, it's December, so you know what that means - the return of AFTN's Festive Fifteen! Our countdown of our favourite tracks of the year and we kick things off with the songs at positions 13 to 15, plus we have another rousing number in Wavelength.Here’s the rundown for the main segments from the episode:01.29: Intro - more traitors talk07.25: A history-making season of milestones for Vancouver Whitecaps31.53: 2025 Festive Fifteen - #15 The Cords - Fabulist38.20: Whitecaps dominate San Diego to reach MLS Cup final77.48: 2025 Festive Fifteen - #14 Crazy and the Brains - All Saints82.20: MLS Cup preview - another match-up with Miami112.32: 2025 Festive Fifteen - #13 Vlure - Better Days117.47: A World Cup draw like no other coming up137.35: Wavelength - Reducers S.F. - Ole
