Robin Lod and Andrew Gutman scored to help the Fire beat Toronto 2-1 on Saturday night at Soldier Field for their third consecutive win.
Toronto (3-6-5) has lost three in a row and is winless in eight straight, dating to a 3-2 victory over Colorado on April 4 — the last of a four-game unbeaten streak.
Chris Brady had three saves for the Fire (8-4-2).
Lod opened the scoring in the 22nd minute. On the counter-attack, Hugo Cuypers played a centering pass from the left side to Maren Haile-Selassie, who tapped a first-touch pass to a charging Lod, who beat goalkeeper Luka Gavran one-on-one.
Gutman headed home a corner kick played in by Philip Zinckernagel to give the Fire a 2-1 lead in the 65th minute.
Josh Sargent returned from a three-game absence (thigh) and scored to make it 1-1 in 34th minute. Alonso Coello, on the counter-attack, played a through ball to a charging Sargent for a first-touch finish that slipped under the crossbar.
Cuypers, who leads MLS with 13 goals, snapped his string of consecutive appearances with a goal at 10 games, the third-longest in league history.
NOTE: Brady made the U.S. team that will compete in the World Cup this summer, joining starter Matt Freese and backup Matt Turner on the roster. Brady, 22, has been in the national team’s camp several times but has yet to play in a game.
