Forge FC clinched first place in the CPL on Tuesday night at York Lions Stadium, as they downed 905 Derby rivals York United 3-1 in the Nine Stripes’ final home game of the 2021 season.
Tristan Borges, Daniel Krutzen, and Alexander Achinioti-Jonsson all found the net for Forge, as Lowell Wright’s strike for York wasn’t quite enough to pull out the result on a rainy evening.
The two sides will meet again in Hamilton on November 21 in the CPL semi-final, although Forge have a couple more league games left to play before then.
Here are your sights and sounds from York Lions Stadium, for the final time this year.
