Chicago Fire goalkeeper Matt Lampson had a rough night on Saturday. Sporting Kansas City beat the Men In Red 3-2 last weekend, due in no small part to some crucial mistakes from the 27-year-old. While I’m inclined to give him a pass for the Benny Feilhaber goal— his backline really hung him out to dry on that one— he definitely should’ve done a bit better on the other two goals.
Everyone has a bad game, and Lampson will surely bounce back, but his performance was definitely a contributing factor to what is now a two-game losing streak from a team that was atop the Supporters’ Shield standings before the Gold Cup break.
