The Chicago Fire secured a dominant 3-0 victory over CF Montréal on Saturday, thanks to goals from Jonathan Bamba, Hugo Cuypers, and Robin Lod. But here's where it gets controversial: despite playing with a man advantage for the final 34 minutes, the Fire still managed to control the match and limit Montréal's chances. And this is the part most people miss: the Fire's attacking dominance was evident with an 18-4 advantage in shots and an 11-2 edge in on-target shots, while Montréal managed just 0.1 expected goals. The win extends the Fire's unbeaten streak against Canadian opponents to six matches dating back to 2024, and marks their first victory of the season after an opening road loss at Houston. Up next, the Fire will face Columbus on Saturday, while Montréal will take on New York on March 8th. So, what do you think?
