After his first half brace helped the 10-man Fire secure a vital three points at home against Philadelphia on Saturday, Chicago Fire forward Nemanja Nikoliu0107 has been selected to the latest MLS Team of the Week!
Nikoliu0107 got on the board 38 minutes into the match with a vintage near-post tap-in finish, courtesy of a Przemysu0142aw Frankowski one-time cross. The goal was Nikoliu0107's 49th in MLS regular season play, pushing him into second all-time on the Fire's career goal-scoring charts. Nikoliu0107 then netted his 50th goal in first half stoppage time, sending Union goalkeeper Andre Blake the wrong way from the penalty spot and earning the Men In Red a 2-0 lead they would not relinquish.
