Forge FC advance to Concacaf League Quarterfinals

Canadian Premier League 2020 Island Games Champions Forge FC
​advanced to the Concacaf League Quarterfinals on an added-time PK from Daniel
​Krutzen (90’ +2) against Panama’s Tauro FC. Forge FC will now await the winner
​of Jamaican side Waterhouse FC and Arcahaie from Haiti. The Quaterfinals winner
​will gain entry to the 2021 Conacaf Champions League.

Canadian Youth International Mo Babouli (11’) opened the
​scoring for Forge FC with Tauro’s Edwin Aguilar (18’)
​getting the equalizer just seven minutes later. For Forge FC, it is the second
​late winner to advance in this year’s Concacaf League competition, after
​advancing from the Preliminary Round on an Anthony Novak goal in the 83’
​against Municipal Limeño in October. Novak also drew the penalty for Forge in
​the Tauro box before Krutzen finished to move Forge into the Quarterfinals.

Should Forge fail to win their
​Quarterfinals matchup, they’ll have another Concacaf League opportunity to be
​one of the two teams to advance via the play-in round. Additionally, Forge FC
​can qualify for the 2021 Concacaf Champions League via the 2020 Canadian
​Championship Final in which they’ll face Toronto FC.
