1926 Dominion of Canada Football Championship

United Weston FC won their second Dominion of Canada Championship in just three years when they defeated the Cumberland Canadian Collieries on a last-minute goal. After three draws, Winnipeg won the unprecedented fourth match of the final round after Johnny Lang scored the series winner in the 89th minute.

From three years and 18 inter-provincial matches (1924 to 1926), Winnipeg lost only once in the 1925 semi-finals. In the 1926 Connaught Series, they eliminated Fort William Veterans and Toronto Willys-Overland before taking on Cumberland in the final round.

HERO OF THE CHAMPIONSHIP


Goalkeeper Eddy Derby was Winnipeg's hero of the 1926 Championship. In the last match of the series, he put in in “one of the most brilliant games of his career.”
