SEATTLE, WASH. - Sounders FC continues its Sounders FC Classics weekly broadcasts tomorrow evening, with this week featuring a "Vancouver" theme. Fans were able to choose between four classic matchups between the Rave Green and Cascadia rival Vancouver Whitecaps FC, ultimately choosing, with 55 percent of the vote, Sounders FC's 2015 Cascadia Cup-clinching victory at BC Place. The club is offering Sounders FC Classics as a weekly program - Saturday evenings at 7:00 p.m. PT - to provide fans of the Rave Green with a taste of their favorite team during Major League Soccer's ongoing suspension of play. This week's match is presented by Budweiser.

Sounders FC Classics is available live on JOEtv, as well as both live and archived for later viewing on SoundersFC.com and via the Sounders FC mobile app, for those within the Sounders FC broadcast territory throughout the state of Washington. Fans can also tune in to 950 KJR AM via radio or iHeartRadio app to listen to the game's broadcast.

In addition to the match broadcasts on radio, television, SoundersFC.com and the Sounders FC app, each Sounders FC Classics broadcast features a second screen viewing opportunity from the club's Twitter account. Former Sounder and current Brand Ambassador Brad Evans hosts a 30-minute program starting at 6:30 p.m. PT each Saturday evening, offering additional commentary, analysis and matchday memories. Evans is joined by special guests, including players, coaches, broadcast talent and others, while also engaging with fan questions.
