Controversy in this one as Platt and Wheeler in the post-match show indicated that on the free kick, one of the Ottawa players was standing within a metre of the wall which is now a no-no.  (Didn't know that and had to check the rulebook: its true)...

Noticed that in the highlights. Questions will no doubt be asked in the Forge dressing room as to why noone was kicking up a fuss about that when Bassett was about to take the free kick. The whole wall should have been pointing at the player and screaming at the ref when he stepped back in towards them.

The Forge also got the ball to two guys who were wide open at the back post in the first half who were unable to take a shot first time with their left foot. The absence of small basic skills like that can be what stops a player hitting the really big time.
