Chicago Fire return to training Tuesday to prep for final stretch of regular season

Leave it to Fire forward Nemanja Nikoliu0107 to aptly sum up his squad's approach to their return to training on Tuesday afternoon at Toyota Park.

“I think it’s all about pride. In this moment, it’s all about that.

“It was good experience for us that we were a couple of days together to be part of such a great time for Basti’s last game at Bayern Munich," Nikoliu0107 continued. "We had some team-building there. We moved from Chicago and from the routine days. Now, we are back in business.”
