Chicago Fire 2:1 Portland Timbers — Informe del Partido

Gary RedknappFootball AnalystINFORME DEL PARTIDO

Dje Tah D'Avilla scored as Chicago Fire beat Portland Timbers 2-1 in MLS, a result that sets up a trip to Orlando City SC next. Two goals inside the opening quarter-hour proved decisive, though the Timbers spent the rest of the evening knocking on the door.

Robin Lod opened the scoring in the ninth minute with Andrew Gutman providing the assist, before D'Avilla doubled the lead just five minutes later from Maren Haile-Selassie's delivery. Portland pushed for a way back throughout, Finn Surman pulling one back in the 85th minute with Brandon Bye assisting, but the Fire held on despite Bye's earlier booking.

Possession told a one-sided tale, Portland Timbers enjoying 61% of the ball and four corners to Chicago's none, yet the Fire's xG of 1.48 outweighed the visitors' 0.99. The second half was more even, the Timbers shading xG 0.66 to 0.61, but Chicago were clinical when it mattered. D'Avilla earned an 8.3 rating with his goal from midfield. CheckLive's model clearly favoured Chicago Fire, and the result confirmed it.
