Chicago Fire top FC Dallas 2-1, win fourth straight

BRIDGEVIEW, Ill. (May 25, 2017) – The Chicago Fire (7-3-3, 24 points) made it four straight wins on Thursday night, picking up a 2-1 win over visiting FC Dallas (5-2-4, 19 points) at Toyota Park.

Fire forward Nemanja Nikolic got things going , bagging his MLS-leading 11th goal in the third minute of play. Defender Brandon Vincent found himself on the end of a Bastian Schweinsteiger pass high up the field, and played a low cross in for the on-running Nikolic to finish. Dallas wasted little time in equalizing, however. 2017 newcomer Roland Lamah pounced on a deflected clearance attempt in the Fire 18-yard-box to bring things level in the sixth minute.
