Thanks to @scarvesandspikes.com for having Nathan and I on to talk all things #VWFC and MLS Cup!

Now told that it is approaching 16K.

Told that the #VWFC MLS Cup final watch party at BC Place has sold over 13K tickets. That number is just going to go up.

Chelsea getting a point while down to 10 men against Arsenal is still huge.

The Whitecaps are MLS Cup Finalists! And they won the West with a stellar 3-1 win in San Diego. Post-match for @area51sportsnet.bsky.social is up now. area51sportsnet.com/whitecaps-ad...

Thomas Müller on facing Lionel Messi in next week's MLS Cup final: "I don't want it to be Messi vs Thomas Müller. I want it to be Inter Miami vs Vancouver Whitecaps." #VWFC

There will be another #VWFC watch party at BC Place for the MLS Cup Final. Tickets will be $15 and go on sale on Monday. Season ticket members get access at 10 AM, 'Caps insider members at 12 PM and the general public at 3 PM.

Incredible performance. Folks, the Vancouver Whitecaps are going to the MLS Cup Final. Inter Miami is the final obstacle. Thomas Müller vs. Lionel Messi. This is going to be cinema! #VWFC

Absolutely foolish from Sisniega. That pretty much seals the Whitecaps berth in the MLS Cup Final. #VWFC

Cubas and Berhalter are both having another masterclass together. #VWFC

What a run by Ali Ahmed! He's been immense down that left side and he finds Brian White for the tap-in! What a great half from Vancouver. #VWFC

What. A. Start. Sabbi and Müller play a one-two and Ahmed buries the rebound but if goes off McVay and Sisniega. Excellent pressing from the Whitecaps so far. #VWFC

Great awareness and by Cubas and White puts the Whitecaps in front early! Very important that they got the first goal. #VWFC

Welp, looks Inter Miami will host MLS Cup. Now it's up to #VWFC to get the job done in San Diego tonight.

New for @area51sportsnet.bsky.social : #VWFC are ready for the big challenge against San Diego in the Western Conference Final. area51sportsnet.com/whitecaps-re...

New TCFC podcast! We talk all about the #VWFC vs LAFC match that was absolute cinema, preview the Western Conference final against San Diego and more! Enjoy!

Tight game and gutsy win by San Diego, where the Whitecaps will play the Western Conference final. #VWFC

I owe NYCFC an apology. I wasn't familiar with their game as I thought they were cooked without Alonso Martinez. Should both #VWFC and NYCFC advance to the MLS Cup Final, it would be at BC Place.

New for @Area51SportsNet : I'm still not over last night's #VWFC win and that was by far, the greatest sports game I have ever covered as a member of the media. I had to write something. The Whitecaps have become a new hope for Vancouver sports fans. area51sportsnet.com/whitecaps-ne...

In the words of John Shorthouse: They've slayed the dragon! #VWFC

In one of the greatest MLS matches you'll ever see, the Whitecaps blew a 2-0 lead. Went down to nine in extra time and won on penalties. And for the first time, are off to the Western Conference Final!!

Somehow, the Whitecaps survived 30 minutes of extra time...while down 10 and then 9. Penalties it is. #VWFC

Whitecaps really took the foot off the gas in the second half. Now they have to play extra time down to 10 men. #VWFC

And Son scores a free kick and ties the game....man... #VWFC

Nine minutes off added time...and Blackmon gets a second yellow...oh my... #VWFC

Good lord, Lloris just robbed Blackmon. #VWFC

LAFC have come to life in the second half and Son gets three cracks at putting the rebound past Takaoka. 'Caps have looked sloppy out of the break. #VWFC

Couldn't have asked a better half for the Whitecaps. Defensively, they've done a good job preventing LAFC going on the transitions and been dominant with the ball. #VWFC

Laborda pounces on the loose ball of the corner. Bedlam at BC Place! #VWFC

That was also Takaoka's 1st assist in all competitions this season and he becomes the 23rd different player on the Whitecaps to get an assist in all comps this season. #VWFC

What a ball from Takaoka to find Sabbi! And he makes no mistake beating Lloris! #VWFC

So far, the 'Caps are doing a good job of getting out of danger. #VWFC

No surprise that #VWFC are controlling possession and LAFC have done well with their shapes and been using the breakouts.

The calm before the storm. Müller vs Son. #VWFC vs LAFC. It is only round two, but this feels like a final. Should be a good one!

Really unfortunate, but felt like this was coming. Valour is the second #CanPL club to fold after FC Edmonton.

90 minutes for everything. #VWFC look to rewrite the script of the past two years as they face LAFC in the MLS post-season once more. But it's a different series this time around. I preview the match here. area51sportsnet.com/third-times-...

Has to be the best effort of the season by the #Canucks , but no win. At least they won on xG.

New TCFC pod! Previewing the big #VWFC match vs LAFC, the Rise becoming the first ever NSL champions, what we learned from #CanMNT 's games against Ecuador and Venezuela and more! Enjoy!

Well...that was a match. But at least Canada got the win. #CANMNT

The final matches in CONCACAF World Cup qualifying are all 🔥 tonight. So much on the line. All free to watch on YouTube

Kind of a slog of a half. Nice that they finally scored and they have been fine defensively, but still need more from the attack. #CanMNT

Finally, a goal! Richie Laryea made it happen with his run and a tidy finish by Ismael Kone. #CanMNT

This has the vibes of the COVID era with the empty stands. #CanMNT

The Vancouver Rise are the first ever #NSL Champions! They had to go through being down in the first half, a weather delay, but their resilience showed, like it had all season. The started the first ever NSL season with a win, and they finished it with a win. Well deserved.

Despite being down to 10 men for 85 minutes, #CanMNT held Moises Caicedo and Ecuador to a scoreless draw. An impressive performance given the circumstances. Post-match for @area51sportsnet.bsky.social is up now. area51sportsnet.com/canada-mnt-h...

Well, after Ahmed got sent off, it looked like things would take the turn for the worst. But Canada held their ground against a good side. Seven straight halves without a goal, but hopefully, they figure that out against Venezuela. #CanMNT

#CanMNT aren't doing too bad down to 10 men as Ecuador has been limited to one chance. Have to think what could've been if Oluwaseyi scored his chance.

Ahmed gets sent off six minutes in for a high challenge. A yellow sure. Red seems harsh. #CanMNT
