Having secured three points in their first match of the new month on Saturday, the Men In Red can fully focus on a date that's always circled on the June calendar: the club's entry into the Lamar Hunt U.S. Open Cup's Fourth Round.
In this the 105th edition of the historic tournament, the four-time champion Chicago Fire begin their latest quest for a fifth trophy with a different challenge than many of their recent forays into the competition. Rather than facing a lower-division opponent in their Fourth Round contest, the Fire jump straight to MLS competition when they travel to take on Columbus Crew SC Wednesday (June 6) at MAPFRE Stadium.
