With their 5-1 aggregate victory over Inter Miami CF in the 2025 Concacaf Champions Cup semifinals, Vancouver Whitecaps FC have become the eighth MLS team to reach the final in the modern-day version of the continental tournament.
MLS finalists in Concacaf Champions Cup

Of the seven previous finalists, Seattle became the first MLS club to capture the CCC title. They won the 2022 final 5-2 on aggregate over Mexican side Pumas UNAM.
Now, Vancouver will look to add a second CCC trophy to the MLS cabinet. They'll face either LIGA MX's Cruz Azul or Tigres UANL in the June 1 final, with the time and location to be determined.
The CCC winner earns prize money and a spot in both the 2029 FIFA Club World Cup and the 2025 Intercontinental Cup.
