After a stretch of three games at Soldier Field, the Fire are back on the road this weekend. In this stretch of three games, the Fire were unbeaten, yet only came away with all three points in one match. Against D.C. United three weeks ago, the Fire were unable
After a three-game undefeated homestand, the Fire head back out on the road, visiting an Atlanta United team that remains undefeated at home. While both clubs have just a single loss on their records, both Ezra Hendrickson as well as Atlanta Head Coach Gonzalo Pineda will be asking their teams
It was looking like it was going to be a fantastic night for all Fire fans. Not only was Soldier Field offering free tickets and Chicago was providing warm weather, but the Fire also looked like they were hungry for 3 points in the first half. Looking back on the
Theoretically, the Fire could have been in fifth place in the Eastern Conference if they had held the 2-0 scoreline they achieved after a clunky Maren Haile-Selassie tap-in and freak own-goal from Nathan Harriel. The Fire would prove continuously wasteful in front of goal, and after Miguel Ángel Navarro gave

How does this keep happening? That’s the question on everyone’s lips around the Chicago Fire, and someone needs to figure out how to stop it. The Fire hosted the Philadelphia Union this weekend, and despite jumping out to a two-goal, they fell to a 2-2 draw in a
A win on Saturday would be the Fire’s 3rd in their last 4 matches. Coming off of their first home victory of the season last weekend against Minnesota, Chicago should feel confident in their ability to produce a result against the Union; whose last MLS victory was against the
The Fire host the Philadelphia Union at Soldier Field on Saturday as they look for revenge against the team that handed them their only loss on the season. In the month since, the Fire have played well even if they’ve struggled to cash in on opportunities to get wins;
The Fire’s first-half performance is what earned them their first home victory of the season. Minnesota did not press the Fire high in the opening period, and Chicago took full advantage of this. The visitor’s low defensive block invited the Fire to not only possess the ball but
A brace from Kei Kamara, the debut of Giorgios Koutsias, and three points? The only thing that could have made this match better would have been a clean sheet and more goals from the Fire. Chicago started with their typical 4-2-3-1, but would eventually switch to a 5-4-1 later in
https://twitter.com/meninred97/status/1644891448213471234?s=20 Making his second, start for the Fire, Kamara proved his worth and proved to his manager why he should be the Fire’s first-choice striker. The 38-year-old scored a first-half brace that would ultimately secure the Fire all 3 points. Not only
Moreso than ever before during the Ezra Hendrickson era, things are looking up for the Chicago Fire. In spite of yet another low turnout at Soldier Field, the Fire stunned unbeaten Minnesota United, 2-1 thanks to a pair of first half goals from their most experienced player, and soared up
Last weekend at Soldier Field, the Fire only managed a goalless draw against D.C. United. Although the Fire certainly weren’t at their best on the night, the performance certainly warranted more than a point. This has been the story of the Fire’s season thus far. Sitting 12th
The Chicago Fire may be on a three-match unbeaten streak, but entering this weekend's home matchup with Minnesota United, there is a sense of urgency that more wins are needed. While the Fire haven't lost at home, tomorrow's match will be a sneakily difficult
Wayne Rooney’s D.C. United pressed the Fire hard in the first half. Like the Fire, D.C.’s 4-2-3-1 shape would devolve into a 4-4-2 when pressing high up the pitch. Despite the intensity of the press, however, the Fire were able to find ways to break it
For their fifth match of the season, the Fire hosted an in-transition D.C. United Team led by Wayne Rooney. It would be a fairly boring match as both teams combined only posted five total shots and pass completion rates under 75%. The Fire would line up in a 4-2-3-1
