Match Info

Forge FC secured a narrow 1-0 first-leg advantage over MLS side Montreal Impact in the Canadian Championship on May 21, 2025. The match, played at Tim Hortons Field with a 07:00 kick-off, was a classic cup tie decided by a single goal from the Canadian Premier League champions. The decisive moment came in the second half when Forge capitalized on a defensive lapse, with their striker finishing coolly past the Montreal goalkeeper. Montreal, boasting higher-division quality, controlled large portions of possession but struggled to break down a disciplined and compact Forge defense. The match was a physical and tactical battle, with Forge's midfield working tirelessly to disrupt Montreal's rhythm. This result was a significant upset on paper and gave Forge a crucial lead to take into the second leg at Stade Saputo. The Forge manager was delighted with the result, stating, "We knew we had to be perfect defensively and take our chance when it came. The players executed the plan brilliantly against a very good opponent."
