Episode 485 - The AFTN Soccer Show (Moving On To Something Better)

The 2021 MLS regular season is in the history books and after many twists and turns and ups and downs, the Whitecaps are in the postseason for the first time since 2017. We pick over the bones of their playoff clinching 1-1 draw at home to Seattle, look around the rest of the action on Decision Day as the afternoon timeline played out, and set up the playoffs to come. But while it's great news on the pitch for the 'Caps, the sexual misconduct scandal is still looming large off it.
