Forge FC leads CF Montréal in Canadian Championship final

Canadian Championship Forge FC CF Montréal Voyageurs Cup Canadian Premier League

Forge FC holds a 1-0 lead over CF Montréal at Stade Saputo in the Canadian Championship final. The opening goal came in stoppage time of the first half via an Antoine Batisse header following a corner kick.

CF Montréal has struggled throughout the season, including a coaching change from Marco Donadel to Philippe Eullaffroy. The club faces significant roster challenges, including the absence of goalkeeper Thomas Gillier due to shoulder surgery and uncertainty regarding the availability of leading scorer Prince Owusu due to a lower-body injury.

Forge FC, representing the Canadian Premier League, is seeking to become the first CPL team to win the title. The winner of the match will secure the Voyageurs Cup and a berth in the 2027 Concacaf Champions Cup.
