To prepare for Tuesday’s morning kickoff, the Chicago Fire hit the training fields bright and early

When the Chicago Fire face the Seattle Sounders Tuesday at 8 a.m Central time, Francisco Calvo will be ready to go. He just won’t be thrilled about it.

“It’s hard,” Calvo said recently. “It’s not a secret that playing at 9:00 a.m. (Eastern time) is not easy, but we just need to do what we can control, which is make a good preparation, drink a lot of water, a lot of supplements given to us by the coaching staff.

“My only opinion about that is I’m not complaining about if they move us or not in the groups because we don’t care about that,” Calvo continued.
