Mo Adams’ Red Card Suspension Has Been Lifted

One of the biggest question marks hanging over the Chicago Fire ahead of tonight’s clash with the Philadelphia Union was Mo Adams.

The rookie defensive midfielder was sent off late in the Fire’s 2-1 win over Orlando on Saturday. The offense that led to the red card didn’t quite seem to warrant the punishment given, and the club decided to appeal the suspension.

Earlier today the club announced that an Independent Panel voted unanimously to overturn Adams’ suspension. The player will be available for selection tonight against the Union.
