Yes, the Fire is the only unbeaten team through the first seven league games. But having tied five of those games, two after jumping out to a lead at home, Chicago wants more points.
"Being unbeaten doesn't mean anything," Fire goalkeeper Jon Busch said. "Yeah, we are undefeated, but we are in games where we work so hard and end up getting ties. We should be winning these games and we are not and that is what matters."
The topic grew more heated with the Fire's 1-1 draw with Seattle Sounders FC on Saturday at Toyota Park. The Fire outplayed the visitors but conceded an easy goal on a corner kick six just six minutes after going ahead while playing with a man advantage. Earlier this year, the Fire took a 2-0 lead against Kansas City only to see Josh Wolff score twice in the final 15 minutes.
