Every quick recap will focus on the first 10 minutes of the 2017 Brimstone Cup matchup between our Fire and FC Dallas, and with good reason - the opening stanza of this match was pure madness: both teams unlimbering haymakers, both teams landing them. The opening 10 minutes was thrilling, end-to-end football, and the Fire had the best of it, sprinting to a 2-1 lead that would remain unchanged for the rest of the night. (A sample Quick Recap is included for study.)
It’s not unreasonable to focus on the 10 minutes when all the goals happened, but - as a Fire fan - it’s what happened in the 80 minutes that followed that was an absolute delight.
