What is there to say? What hasn’t been said about the 2022 Chicago Fire that hasn’t been said about teams of the recent and not-so-recent past? When the Fire start the game dominant for the first 20 minutes and then give up two goals just before halftime, It feels like we’re right back where we started at the beginning of the Georg Heitz era. Little hope and few options. Strikers who can’t score and a defense that breaks instead of bends.
To be sure there were some positives to take away, mostly, as I said, from the beginning of the game.
