Forge FC have clinched their second CPL regular season title! Joined by former Forge player and CPL expert Emery Welshman, Mackenzie & Emery break down the key takeaways from Forge's 1-0 victory over Valour FC, dive into the midfield's recent contributions, and look ahead to the final games of the season. Emery shares insights on maintaining motivation with the playoffs in sight, the depth of Forge's roster, and the potential playoff challenges. With playoff spots on the line, the stage is set for an exciting postseason run.

Key Takeaways:

• Victory Review: Forge FC's solid 1-0 win over Valour FC; it was one of few times Forge have gone to Winnipeg and dominated the game from start to finish.
• Midfield Strength: Ale, Bekks, and Noah's pivotal roles in recent performances. That said, Emery compared the central midfield to a well oiled machine where multiple players are able to step in.
• Roster Depth: The impact of Borges and Cissé’s absence and Forge’s ability to thrive — “It’s just the Forge machine now”
• Playoff Outlook: Emery says it’s difficult to balance celebrating a regular season title while maintaining motivation for playoffs.
• Upcoming Matches: Forge will take on Atletico Ottawa this weekend; their potential matchup for the first round of playoffs. Regardless of the result, Forge will lift the CPL Shield.
