Atlanta United fell to Chicago Fire FC 3-0 Saturday night at Soldier Field. Ronald Hernández made his MLS debut while Tyler Wolff and Mikey Ambrose each made their first appearances of the season.
After an evenly played opening half hour, Chicago opened the scoring in the 34th minute on a goal from Ignacio Aliseda. The play started from Fire midfielder Alvaro Medrán, who sliced through midfield before feeding Aliseda near the edge of the top of the box. Mo Adams made a diving effort to block Aliseda’s shot, but he was a fraction late as the ball ricocheted off his right foot and into the back of the net.
