“They’ve certainly stopped downplaying this rivalry” (Forge Daily, ft. Adam Jenkins)

Forge Audio Network

Final episode of Forge Daily for the week! In today's show, Mackenzie is joined by Adam Jenkins to preview Forge FC's upcoming clash against Cavalry FC. They cover Kwasi Poku's recent statistics, the dynamics of broadcasting intense and physical matches, and what makes this rivalry the most historic in the Canadian Premier League.

Key Takeaways:

• Cavalry have historically been very strong at home. They conceded their first game at ATCO Field against York United for the first time last weekend. They'll look to use their matchup against Forge as a way to bounce back.
• When it comes to teams that frequently play each other in significant matches, Adam says this is the most historic rivalry, which generally tends to be one-sided.
• Kwasi is intelligent enough to play as a left back again, but even when Jordan Hamilton and Terran Campbell return to full form, it's hard to say if they'll want him to move.
• Cavalry are currently an extremely frustrated group. They will be more motivated and well-rested than they have been in a long time.
