Using a similar formula to the one that earned them a win in Orlando one week earlier, the Fire picked up three big points at home Saturday night, defeating the visiting San Jose Earthquakes, 2-1, at Toyota Park. Catch up on the most notable outcomes from the match:
- Just like in that win at Orlando City SC, it was Alan Gordon and Aleksandar Katai providing the signature moments as goal-scorers in a 2-1 win, beginning with Gordon’s third goal in as many games. It’s the first time Gordon found net in three consecutive matches since July, 2012, when he was at the peak of his form as a member of the San Jose Earthquakes.
