“It’s not about what happened, but what you do about it” (Forge Daily, 09/16/24)

Monday, September 16, 2024 • Duration 20:52

Welcome back to another week on the audio network! Forge FC is coming off a tough 3-0 defeat against the Halifax Wanderers and now turns its focus to an upcoming away match in Vancouver. Today, Mackenzie is joined by Steve Milton to analyze the Halifax game, evaluate the team's current position with only a few weeks left in the season, and discuss how Forge has historicaily bounced back from similar challenges. We'll also hear from Coach Bobby and Alex Achinioti-Jönsson in the post-match press conference.

Key Takeaways:
Playing Halifax at home has always been a challenge, with Forge not facing them there since 2022.
Forge experienced several defensive lapses while Halifax came out with high energy, leading to the 3-0 loss.
Forge remains at the top of the standings, leading Ottawa by 3 points. Atletico's 2-2 draw with Cavalry was favorable for their current position.
Milty predicts Chris Kalongo will return to the net, as he has established
himself as the team's starting goalkeeper.
Mackenzie highlights recent signings, noting that Forge needs to adapt to kwasi Poku's absence and refine their attacking strategy.
