    Medran and Frankowski are turning out to be a useful pair.

    Terrific cross by Mueller, but skips in front of goal with no Orlando player (or Mr Own Goal) to tap it in

    These are the least annoying SAP announcers.

    Annoying, by not nearly as annoying as normal.

    Wow! 9 extra minutes. I know the Fire kept dropping, but wow.

    Was originally on the board as 9 minutes. A small revision to 8 is good.

    Offor with a beautiful play.

    Steals the ball, 40 yard run pass to Frankowski
    pass back Offor for the easy goal.

    Third game in a row that the Fire have scored 3 goals

    A well deserved win.


    7 points out of 9 in the past three games
    9 goals scored
    4 conceded

    Pretty good

    I want to like Herbers and feel he is a useful squad player but...I do not think he should be starting.

    Nice game and good energy still need a mid that can dribble and pass. Third game in a row they scored 3 goals.

    Coaches don't switch up a winning squad. Herbers is your classic intangibles guy, nothing about him says he should be starting, but when he's in the starting 11 the team plays better.

    Herbers is not good -- Medran's last few games his best stretch with the team as far as I remember

    why was Mueller not starting tonight for Orlando? some mid-week rest?

    He's better than Logan Pause ever was. I hope I haven't triggered anyone.

    I said 2-1 before the game. It was 2-1 as I was walking down from the club to Sector and I was thinking "We need another goal before I feel safe about this."

    Then Offor got the goal. So I'm happy.

    They sat a lot of good guys. Wonder what was up with that. Nani didn't start either.

    Because of or in spite of his presence?

    I do not dislike Herbers. He showed promise his first season and a bit last year.

    It's kind of a given, since the standard of MLS has been raised so much. I cite the sheer professionalism of just having a league to aspire to for the entirety of the lives of any player joining the league now. They don't remember a time before MLS.
