Forge FC scored a dramatic injury time winner to beat Cavalry 1-0 on Saturday and win the inaugural Canadian Premier League.
Substitute David Choiniere pounced in the 95th minute to lead Forge to a 2-0 aggregate victory.
Cavalry topped both the spring and fall leagues, with Forge, from Hamilton, Ontario, runner up both times.
But Forge won the first leg of the final 1-0 at home on Oct. 26 and then surprised their rivals in front of their own fans on Saturday.
Despite their regular season dominance and an attack that scored a league high 51 goals in 28 games, Cavalry could not get the one goal that would have made the difference over the two legs of the playoff.
