On April 12, in Vancouver, Canada, a match of the eighth round of the 2025 MLS regular season took place at BC Place, where the Vancouver Whitecaps defeated Austin with a score of 5-1.
However, the match had to be stopped in the seventh minute due to a mouse running on the soccer field. The rodent was spotted during a corner kick taken by the visiting team. Austin goalkeeper Brad Stuver caught the mouse and removed it from the playing area.
After eight matches played this season, the Whitecaps, managed by Jesper Sørensen, have accumulated 19 points and sit at the top of the Western Conference standings. Austin, with 13 points, are currently in fifth place.
