Forge FC extended their lead in the standings by 7 points after yet another home win this past weekend against York United. In today’s episode, Mackenzie breaks down all the action from the 905 Derby, the impact on the standings after Matchweek 25, and takes a look at where Valour FC stands ahead of their upcoming clash with Forge FC this weekend.

Key Takeaways;

• Forge FC secured a 2-0 victory in the 905 Derby against York United, with goals from Noah Jensen and Nana Ampomah.
• Noah Jensen's goal in the second half brought his season total to 5, trailing only Tristan Borges. Nana Ampomah sealed the game with a late goal, aided by new signings Victor Klonaridis and Alex.
• Both Amadou Kone and Tristan Borges were absent from the starting lineup, and Forge had to adapt when Elimane Cissé left the match due to injury. Jordan Hamilton, Dav Choinière, and Benni Badibanga led the attack.
• The episode highlighted results from Matchweek 25, including Cavalry's 0-0 draw with Vancouver and a 1-1 draw between Ottawa and Halifax. These results affect playoff positions, especially with Valour FC and Pacific FC fighting for the 5th playoff spot.
• Forge will face Valour FC next, with Forge on the verge of clinching the regular season title and Valour fighting to stay in the playoff race.
