It was a real Jekyl and Hyde week for the Chicago Fire. After drubbing Atlanta 5-1 on Wednesday, they lost a 1-0 snoozer to Sporting Kansas City.

Wednesday night was sublime. Three goals in 14 minutes. The floodgates had opened against a quality opponent in the five stripes, and the Fire were finally making good— turning their expected goals into actual goals. CJ Sapong continued his wonderful form, scoring a brace in what had to be one of his better performances in a Fire shirt.
