Way back in preseason when the 2018 season schedule was released and I saw the Fire had back-to-back games against the MLS Cup champions, I wrote both of them off as losses. However else the Fire might fare this season, we’d all have to emotionally prepare to drop both games and just look past them.
A funny thing happened along the way— Toronto tanked. All of a sudden these games seem winnable.
Or they would if the Fire hadn’t also massively regressed from last year. Just because Toronto are awful doesn’t mean Chicago is a lock to get six points from six.
