“A lot of bad goals… on both sides” (Forge Daily, 07/01/24)

Forge Audio Network

Happy Canada Day! In today’s episode of Forge Daily, Mackenzie recaps the wild match that was Forge FC vs. Atletico Ottawa. We hear from Alexander Achinioti-Jönsson and Noah Jensen as well as Coach Bobby at the Post Match Press Conference. They share similar sentimates on not giving up set pieces and making unforced errors against a team like Ottawa. Noah shares his Canada Day plans for later!

Key Takeaways:

• Noah and Alex believe Forge's errors were self-inflicted, with set pieces and unforced errors giving Ottawa the advantage and leading to frequent lead changes.
• Coach Bobby described the match as ‘wild’ with numerous ‘bad goals’ on both sides.
• Forge started the second half strong, scoring immediately after discussing the need to stay aggressive and apply pressure during halftime.
• While Forge had strong periods during the game, they failed to secure the win, ultimately losing in an aerial duel in the 95th minute.
• Aboo Sissoko’s goal felt like a 'dagger in the back' to Noah, as conceding from a set piece and being disorganized so early was a significant mistake.
