Offseason? Not quite.
A number of Vancouver Whitecaps FC players will be in action later this week as part of the November FIFA international window. The ‘Caps have four players away with the Canadian national team for a friendly vs. Korea Republic, and three more set to kick off “the Hex” – also known as the final round qualifying for the 2018 FIFA World Cup in the CONCACAF region.
In the Hex, the six remaining teams will play the others twice – once home and once away – for a total of 10 matches up until the conclusion of the round in October 2017.
