Hey, soccer fans! No more negativity (at least for this episode). The Chicago Fire came out with a purpose against an Atlanta United team who thought they would stroll into Solider Field, make quick work of the Men in Red, and stroll out with three points. The Fire's stout defense and quick counter-attacks kept the Five Stripes from getting on the score sheet - and some highlight-reel saves from Fire GK Chris Brady certainly helped. The two teams split the points and look for more next weekend.
For the Chicago Fire, this means another home game. They welcome Eastern Conference opponent the New England Revolution - the worst team in MLS at the moment. A victory for the Fire would be huge for their morale and for the fans, and it is within reach if they keep up their up-tempo, attacking style.
We conclude the show by looking at the expansion news from Indianapolis and discussing whether the MLS wants to kill USL or just made a dumb move in trying to bring a new team into an already existing - and wildly popular - USL city.
