Chicago Fire man of the match? #cf97 #vamosfire

Club captain Rafael Czichos led by example on Saturday night, and was certainly instrumental to the Fire picking up their first clean sheet of the campaign.
Czichos won all 3 of his attempted tackles and won 88% of his ground duels.
In partnership with Carlos Téran, Czichos did well to keep Christian Benteke and company quiet on the night. As a result, DC created zero big chances with their best look at goal coming from Taxiarchis Fountas’ long ranged effort that smashed off the post.
