But first, the vibrant soccer veteran had to make it through the throngs of fans and well-wishers in downtown Vancouver on his way to a sold-out B.C. Place stadium. As expected, the gregarious German with the energetic social media presence lapped it all up.

Photo by Ethan Cairns / THE CANADIAN PRESS Some 30,000 fans are expected to witness the debut of the attacking midfielder they call Herr Raumdeuter in Germany — a player who excels at interpreting and exploiting space on the pitch. Muller, 35, is expected to substitute into the game at some point. He trained with the Caps (13-6-6) for the first time on Friday, more than a week after signing with the Major League Soccer club. Muller comes to Vancouver following 17 seasons with Bayern Munich in the German Bundesliga. He scored 250 goals across all competitions, helping the club to 33 titles, including 13 league championships.

Vancouver is 7-2-2 at home and already has more home wins than all of last season (6-7-4).

Vancouver's Little Mountain gets big win over Australia at Little League World Series
Canada is moving on at the Little League World Series after Vancouver's Little Mountain rolled to a dominant 12-0 win Sunday over Australia, represented by Brisbane North Region Little League. Tyson Grimsrud-Ronse pitched four no-hit innings, with one walk and five strikeouts for the Canadian champions, who lost 4-0 to Venezuela in their tournament opener Friday. Little Leaguer's bat flip controversy becomes a collectible Australia, which beat Europe-Africa 5-3 in its previous game, earned its first and only hit Sunday when Braxton Black doubled on a fly ball off reliever Misha Lee in the fifth inning. Lee, Arek Aubuchon and Matthew Wong produced two hits apiece for Canada, which managed 13 on the day. Aubuchon tallied a game-high three RBIs. Canada led 4-0 after the fourth inning before rattling off eight runs in the fifth. Emmett Stefanson capped the offensive onslaught with a single on a ground ball that scored Luca Di Nozzi. Xander Reid was tagged with the loss for Australia after giving up three hits, four walks and three earned runs in three innings. Preston Reid surrendered nine hits, three walks and eight earned runs in 1 1/3 innings in relief. Canada will next play Tuesday against the winner of Monday's game between the Caribbean and Asia-Pacific.

Abigail Strate claims bronze at ski jumping Summer Grand Prix in Poland
Canadian ski jumper Abigail Strate won bronze for her fourth consecutive medal on the Summer Grand Prix on Sunday. The 24-year-old from Calgary landed on the podium with 116.4 points, while Slovenia's Nika Prevc captured gold (126.2) and Japan's Nozomi Maruyama (117.5) took silver. 'I'm a summer person for sure. I like the sun and have always liked jumping in the summer,' said Strate, who's also a graphic designer. 'The last time I jumped well in the summer, it carried into the whole year so hopefully this is a good omen for me.' Calgary's Nicole Maurer, the only other Canadian in the deep field, finished 26th. Norway ski jumpers charged over alleged suit tampering Strate, who won a bronze medal in the mixed team ski jumping event at the 2022 Olympics, became the second Canadian ski jumper to medal in two straight events on back-to-back weekends, joining teammate Alex Loutitt. Strate opened the Olympic campaign last weekend with a bronze medal in France. It was her first career summer ski jumping podium. She delivered a golden encore, celebrating her first international victory a day later, before earning another bronze in Poland on Saturday. 'In my heart, this is so fun, and I have many positive emotions,' she said. 'It feels great for me now, but I know this isn't when I want to be great. I really hope this can last until the start of the winter and through the season.'
