The Chicago Fire missed their most potent offensive weapon Saturday and it showed as the team failed to convert some promising buildups into anything more than half chances.
David Accam is the Fire's offensive spark. A creator of chaos. A constant threat who can make something out of nothing with pure speed.
Accam was not in this game and either was the Fire's offensive spark. The result was a 0-0 draw against Columbus as both teams remained winless on the season.
The team announced shortly before the match that Accam would miss the game and his scheduled call-up to the Ghana national team because of a knee sprain.
