Chicago Fire Scorches Portland Timbers In Crucial Match
Chicago Fire put in a great performance to defeat the Portland Timbers. This was a major game that was going to determine who would be at the top of the play off standings. As it so happened, the Fire came out of the blocks with all guns blazing and just ended up having too much for the Timbers. While the Timbers put up a very valiant effort and contributed a great deal to the game, they were always going to end up coming second best. They just did not have the quality in the final third to keep up with the Chicago Fire.
There may be bigger tests out there for the Fire, but for now they can only beat what is put out in front of them. They have certainly done a fantastic job of that and they have managed to really put in a good performance in front of their fans. They have shown that they mean business and they want to go all the way and win the MLS Cup. The LA Galaxy may have something to say about that, but the Fire certainly look like they are the team to beat. They could definitely go all the way to MLS glory.
