FRISCO, Texas - CF Montréal Academy's U15 team earned qualification to the 2023 MLS NEXT Cup final on Thursday following a 2-2 (5-4) semifinal penalty shootout win against Strikers FC, in Frisco, Texas.

Trailing by a goal at halftime, head coach Esteban Landazabal's team scored back-to-back goals two minutes apart.
