The Chicago Fire will look to bounce back from their U.S. Open “cupset” against Union Omaha when they visit Minnesota United this afternoon.
Will Shaqiri play? There’s no question we receive more on Twitter than fans wondering what’s going on with Xherdan Shaqiri. After coming out of the FC Dallas match a few weeks ago, he hasn’t played in the Fire’s last three matches. The official word has been all along that it’s not serious, he’s “day-to-day,” and they’re just being careful. He’s officially listed as questionable again today, but if he misses a fourth straight game, it’s definitely more than “day-to-day”.
