Cavalry FC will next play Hamilton’s Forge FC in the first leg of the Canadian Premier League Championship Finals series in Hamilton Saturday. The two will meet again a week later in Calgary for the second leg Nov. 2.
“For us now, it’s heading into a playoff,” said Cavs head coach Tommy Wheeldon Jr. following the match. “ It’s going to be a tough road because Forge are an exceptional side and they deserve to be in the final with us. We’re looking forward to it.”

“(The fans) deserve it as much as anyone,” said Cavalry FC goalscorer Sergio Camargo. “They are were our twelfth man the whole season.”
