After hitting the post twice while the game was still scoreless, the Chicago Fire thought they were in a position to take three points on the road at New England on Saturday. Instead, they got burned for two late goals and suffered another defeat, their third in their past four games.
“For the first 70 minutes, we played some pretty good soccer,” midfielder Logan Pause lamented to MLSsoccer.com. “We created some pretty good chances.”
It was a lack of finishing killed the Fire in the end.
“Clearly we had four or five good opportunities, hit the post twice and we didn't capitalize,” head coach Frank Klopas said. “When you're on the road and you don't score, you miss opportunities.”
