CALGARY — David Choiniere scored in the 94th minute as Forge FC claimed the inaugural Canadian Premier League championship with a 1-0 win over Cavalry FC on Saturday.
Cavalry topped the CPL league table in both the spring and fall campaigns for an overall record of 19-4-5. Forge’s record was 17-6-5.
But Forge took the first match of the two-leg championship 1-0 in Hamilton, and thus led by a goal on aggregate heading into Saturday’s finale at Calgary’s ATCO Field.
Forge became the first team to raise the North Star Shield as CPL champions.
