Sunday night might have been the Chicago Fire’s best night of the year, and they didn’t even kick a ball.
Inter Miami lost 2-1 to Toronto FC. Montreal Impact lost 1-0 to Orlando City. And, D.C. United lost 4-3 to the New England Revolution. The only result that didn’t go the Fire’s way—Atlanta United’s 2-0 win over FC Cincinnati, still isn’t good enough to put Atlanta ahead of the Fire.
In other words, a lot of teams had a chance to jump ahead of Chicago last night, and none of them did.
