The Chicago Fire marched into town to end the season series with Columbus Crew SC on Alumni Night for the Black & Gold. The last time these two teams met, forward Romario Williams helped seal a draw in Bridgeview with a late header which saw the match end 2-2.
Not even 30 seconds into the first half, Chicago was granted a free kick that went through traffic and into the hands of goalkeeper Eloy Room.
Room made another in the 10th minute when Przemyslaw Frankowski ripped a curling shot to the far post, making the Curaçao native go full-stretch to force a Chicago corner.
