<p>The Fire fail to build on last weekend’s moment as they drop another game </p> <blockquote>
<p id="de42BV"><a href="https://www.brotherlygame.com/"><strong>Philadelphia Union</strong></a><strong> 3</strong> Ilsinho 44’, Burke 51’, Dockal 87’ (PK)</p>
<p id="6KRr5T"><a href="https://www.hottimeinoldtown.com/"><strong>Chicago Fire</strong></a><strong> 1</strong> Gordon 56’</p>
</blockquote>
<p id="7wWER3">Every time the Fire have a bad season there comes a point where we start clutching at anything that could give some measure of hope. A depth/fringe player scores a goal and we say yes, this young man can carry us through. A substitute keeper has a good game and we say yes, this guy can be our rock. We string a couple games together where late goals salvage a result and we say, yeah, sure, this is a good base to rebuild on.</p>
<p id="1mtqU2">In the past few days we’ve looked at a few positive results on the road— the win against RBNY, the draw with Toronto, and this past Saturday’s win in Orlando— and thought maybe <em>this</em> could work for us. Maybe we’re a team that’s better on the road. Maybe we’re a team that could pull off smash-and-grabs against better sides. There are worse things to build a brand on.</p>
<p id="feMHNu">I thought that too. I wrote as much in the game preview. And for a while, I wanted it to be true. I wanted it to be true enough for the Fire to get a result against Philadelphia.</p>
<p id="L68vQk">And then this happened instead.</p>

<p id="gp0rWV">I’m going to level with you— I’m pretty much done trying to figure out Pauno’s teamsheets. With Mo Adams’ suspension lifted, there was no reason to change things too much for tonight. Obviously if Niko couldn’t play you’d have to make some decisions for the forward line, but that should’ve been a simple switch-out. This 5-3-2 setup is just... I don’t know, man. I gave up.</p>

<p id="GfF6oG">(But hey, Lucho back in the 18! That’s neat!)</p>
<p id="GcyhXK">So you know that phrase “don’t mistake activity for achievement?” That mostly capture’s the Fire’s performance in the first half. Lots of running around, some possession but little of it meaningful, giving up cheap turnovers and missing passes by some distance, and more or less letting Philadelphia dictate terms. The Union had a number of promising early opportunities, most notably from a <span>Alejandro Bedoya</span> header that clanged off the post. </p>
<p id="oEEtbL">The defense was all out of sorts, even with <span>Bastian Schweinsteiger</span> dropping back as a sweeper. (Some bad clearances early from Basti almost let the Union get on the scoreboard. It was hard to tell if those were down to poor focus or fatigue. Or maybe he’s quietly given up.) Meanwhile, the forward line couldn’t figure out what they were doing for long stretches of time— or, indeed, who was playing where. No less than three players had a turn at center forward in the opening half hour. That’s fine if your team plays a very fluid Klopp-esque game. The Fire are not that kind of team.</p>
<p id="lZH33s">One bright spot— <span>Patrick McLain</span>, with a couple brilliant saves to keep the Fire on level terms with their host early on.</p>
<p id="wsoZxA">Katai nearly kicked down the door in the 35th minute with a low shot at the near post, forcing Andre Blake into a diving save. But these moments were few and far between. Too often a Fire attacker would lead a breakaway while teammates jogged behind him. Chicago registered precisely one (1) shot through the entire half. Philly’s bunkering defense surely didn’t help, but the Fire, as is often the case this season, made things harder on themselves than they needed to be.</p>
<p id="WWyygX">At length, the Union made us pay for our indolence. Brushing past befuddled Fire defenders, Ilsinho found space in the box and fired past Pat McLain to put the home team ahead right before halftime. It wasn’t quite inevitable, but it definitely didn’t come as a surprise.</p>

<p id="vwbIHz">As often happens with this Chicago team, they tend to need some time to find their bearings in the game. The Union were wholly uninterested in giving it to them, and they doubled their advantage in the 51st minute when Cory Burke headed home. The entire backline broke down on the play but <span>Jorge Corrales</span> in particular needed to do much better.</p>

<p id="U3QZkN"><a href="https://www.chicago-fire.com/post/2018/05/30/independent-panel-rescinds-mo-adams-suspension">Earlier today the club announced</a> that an Independent Panel voted unanimously to overturn Adams’ suspension.

<p id="TO5vK2">The Panel consists of one representative from US Soccer, one from the Canadian Soccer Association, and one from the Professional Referee Organization. The accompanying fine levied against Adams has also been waived. </p>
<p id="v7l4vb">With kickoff just about an hour away, we’ll know for sure whether Adams keeps his starting spot against Philly. Given his recent performances, it’s a safe bet that he will. No doubt everyone at the club, and many fans, are breathing a sigh of relief right now.</p>

<p>The Fire head to Chester riding a surprisingly strong away form</p> <p id="sekxaV">After being atrocious away from home in recent seasons, the Men In Red find themselves in the curious position of being stronger away from home. Two road wins and a come-from-behind draw against the defending MLS champions have started to give the Fire a reputation for being scalp hunters. Whereas hosting us in the past might’ve been seen as easy points, now we might have teams looking at the Fire as a potential trap game.</p>
<p id="6HZ5A4">Honestly, there are worst things to build a brand around.</p>
<p id="4Adwa5">With that humming in the background, the Fire head to the City Of Brotherly Love— or rather 18.4 miles southwest of the City Of Brotherly Love— to take on the Union. Though they’re one of the weaker teams in the league, the Union are on a bit of a hot streak. Unbeaten in their last three games and boasting a better record at home against us, this fixture isn’t going to be easy for the Men In Red. But it’s not going to be a cakewalk for the other guys either.</p>
<p id="R7Rdxj">And hey, we get to say hi to David Accam. That should be fun.</p>

<p id="jIZQH0">At press time, the league has yet to rule on the appeal over <span>Mo Adams</span>’ suspension. We’re going to assume for now that it’s not going to be resolved ahead of kickoff. (Stay tuned to our gameday coverage throughout the day for any updates on that story.) In the meantime, I’m going to say that McLain stays in goal and that Tchani steps in for Adams. I’m also going to assume Niko starts for now.</p>
<h1 id="P9EUcl">Keys To The Match</h1>
<p id="mb7u4e"><strong>Crash The Gate</strong>: Philly’s backline is decidedly meh, but Andre Blake is quietly making a name for himself as one of the better young keepers in the league. In one on one situations, the smart money is on Blake keeping his shit tight. The Fire’s best chance at scoring will be getting forward in numbers. Niko, Katai, and Campos will have to work together to unspool the defense and overwhelm Blake.</p>
<p id="P2eopl"><strong>Like A Bat Out Of Hell</strong>: With one of our attacking fullbacks out on a long-term injury layoff and our lethal winger from last year wearing the other guys’ shirt, we’re just not as fast as we used to be. But the Fire can still find another gear if they need to, thanks to <span>Brandon Vincent</span> from the back and Diego Campos up top. With both teams fighting fatigue, being able to get that extra step could make all the difference.</p>
<p id="VWQVL8"><strong>Push It To The Limit</strong>: Speaking of fatigue, both teams have thin squads and are heading into tonight on short rest. This game will be as much a test of endurance as skill or speed. The Fire are going to have to dig deep and hold on just a little longer than the home team. </p>
