Why is the Club World Cup happening?

It’s finally here — the Seattle Sounders are kicking off their Club World Cup campaign against Botafogo in Group B at Lumen Field. But it’s not all sunshine and trophies. Amid a growing dispute between MLS players and league owners over Club World Cup prize money, the vibes around the Rave Green have taken a hit. Will this tournament be the reset Seattle needs?

LS Live: Belated fan reactions to Seattle Sounders L at Vancouver!

The Seattle Sounders turned easily their most disappointing performance of the season. What makes it sting even worse is that expectations were quite high for their game against the Vancouver Whitecaps, who were missing more than half their starters and were coming off a nearly team-wide bout of “gastrointestinal symptoms.” The Sounders responded by looking flat and almost uninterested at times.

Jeremiah and Aaron dig into that performance before power-ranking the five teams they each think have the best shots at winning the Club World Cup.

Has there ever been a bigger gap between performance and expectation?

Ɪt was a debacle for the Seattle Sounders in Matchday 18, as the Rave Green got two red cards and lost 3-0 to a depleted Vancouver Whitecaps side.  With the Club World Cup now just days away and the player protest regarding the prize money still raging, can Seattle salvage the vibes, or is the 2025 campaign in danger of slipping away?
