BRIDGEVIEW, Ill. Stevan Ridley Womens Jersey . —Alex and
midfielder Alvaro Fernandez each scored in the second half to lead the Chicago
Fire a 3-1 comeback win over the Montreal Impact on Saturday night. The win
pulled the Fire (15-8-5) within a point of Eastern Conference leader Sporting
Kansas City. Chicago has 50 points and third-place New York is right behind with
49. Montreal (12-15-3), playing its first match in two weeks, dropped its second
straight after winning five in a row. Time may be running out on the Impacts
quest for an Eastern Conference playoff berth. Theyre three points out of the
final playoff berth with four matches left to play. “We needed these three
points tonight,” said Montreal goalkeeper Troy Perkins. “This is not a good
situation. Weve got to play one game at a time, and hope some teams do us some
favours.” Montreals five-match winning streak—its longest of the season and
the only one of more than two matches—came to an end in Columbus on Sept. 1,
when the Crew rallied to win in stoppage time. A two-week layoff followed, and
while the Impact looked sharp at the start of each half Saturday night, the Fire
came on to square the match in the first half before winning it in the second.
The Impact have made a habit of squandering road leads. Theyre 2-5-1 this season
when scoring the first goal on the road. “Were not out of it,” Montreal coach
Jesse Marsch said. “Mathematically, were still alive.” The second-half collapse
started when Alex took a pass from Fernandez, split a pair of defenders and beat
Perkins to break a 1-1 tie in the 61st minute. The Brazilian sent his shot over
Perkins and high to the far corner of the net. “This game turned when they got
the second goal,” midfielder Davy Arnaud said. “Until that point, we were pretty
good. Wed had good chances. They get the second goal, and at that point, it
becomes really tough. Scoring goals on the road is not easy.” Montreal defender
Allesandro Nestas misplay then allowed Fernandez to beat Perkins from 15 yards
for a 3-1 advantage in the 80th minute. Nesta was out of the game less than a
minute later. “Nothing much to say about that,” Marsch said. “All year long, Ive
been trying to figure out how to eliminate mistakes.” Marco Di Vaio gave
Montreal a 1-0 lead in the 20th, his fourth straight match with a goal. He took
defender Hassoun Cameras headed centring pass, flicked the ball forward and
scored from about 12 yards out. Goalkeeper Sean Johnson fell to his right but
could only get a fingertip on the ball. Sherjill MacDonald had tied the match
with a nifty header in the 34th, redirecting a pass from Jalil Anibaba into the
lower left corner of the net. “We couldnt sustain ourselves,” Marsch said. “I do
think there were some potential penalty calls, but youre not going to get those
on the road.” Julian Edelman Jersey . ESPNs Marc Stein
