In their opening game of the 2024 Canadian Premier League season, Hamilton's Forge FC beat Cavalry FC 2-1, a rematch of last year's championship final.
Beni Badinanga scored the winning goal in the 76th minute while Tristan Borges had a goal and an assist for Forge, which picked up their first ever season opening match victory.
7,395 fans at Tim Hortons Field watched as numerous aerial passes failed to find their mark with 50 km/h winds stunting the ball’s progress or carrying it well off target. In the 40th minute, following a swift buildup of play in the midfield, Forge captain Kyle Bekker’s attempt at goal from 30 yards out floated high and wide of Cavalry keeper Marco Carducci’s net.
