Forge, which tops the CPL standings at 3-0-0, dispatched York United FC 3-1 in a game that was decided in the first half, while Atletico Ottawa, second at 2-0-1, hammered struggling Valour FC 7-0 to set a tournament scoring record.
Semi-pro TSS Rovers FC played at Pacific FC in the late game Wednesday. TSS Rovers, based in Richmond, B.C., joined the field last month to replace the now-defunct League1 B.C. champion Victoria Highlanders. Forge has unfinished business with Montreal, which has ended its Voyageurs Cup run the last three years. The four-time CPL champions lost via an 8-2 penalty shootout in the 2021 semifinal, 3-0 in the 2022 quarterfinal and 2-0 in the 2023 semifinal.
Choiniere capped a stylish attack in the 17th minute, roofing his shot in off the crossbar after a feed from Borges, with Hamilton and Beni Badibanga both involved in a stylish buildup. Josue Martinez pulled one back for York in the 87th minute, knocking the ball home after Brian Wright's header hit the crossbar.Spanish veteran Alberto Zapater, star playmaker Ollie Bassett and Ruben Del Campo each scored twice as Atletico Ottawa made short work of struggling Valour.It was yet another loss for Valour, which is 0-3-0 in league play. And it could get worse with the Winnipeg side playing the first eight games of the campaign on the road.
