For the first time since the 2019 CPL Finals, Forge FC visited ATCO Field in Calgary, and just like their last trip to the stadium, came away with a win.

A goal from Joe Mason just 45 seconds into the match had Cavalry off to a fantastic start, but Woobens Pacius and Kyle Bekker scored on either side of the halftime break to earn The Hammers a 2-1 road victory and a spot at the top of the table.

Here are some sights and sounds from Calgary.
