Union grab late winner in 4-3 shootout against Chicago Fire

After two straight losses, the Philadelphia Union scored four goals and grabbed a rare road win against Chicago Fire on Wednesday night.

The back and forth match saw the Union give up the lead three times and was decided by a 95th minute goal by former Chicago player David Accam, who scored his first goal of the season.

Philadelphia lined up in their usual 4-2-3-1 formation, and head coach Jim Curtin gave the fans what they’ve been asking for, a start for striker Cory Burke (spoiler alert: he did not disappoint).
