Back with another edition of Mac & Milty! In today’s episode of Forge Daily, Milty provides his thoughts on the Atletico Ottawa match, they discuss the current standings, and what has to happen to be successful against Vancouver FC this weekend. Milty also brings up the difficulty for Forge players to remove their thoughts of the upcoming TFC match 

Key Takeaways

• Atletico Ottawa is pulling ahead in the standings, while Forge is now tied with York United for third place, and Vancouver FC, with one more point, sits in second.
• Deploying Daniel Parra in the midfield allowed Forge to utilize their depth in the backline. However, Borges will return to the lineup this week.
• Players and coaches have emphasized that Vancouver is the priority, though the TFC match remains on their minds.
• To succeed this Friday, Forge will need to maintain their dominance in tackles won and show urgency in their aerial duels.
• Forge has 17 more regular season matches to close the 7-point gap between them and Atletico Ottawa.
