Nguyen Helps Revs Beat Chicago Fire
FOXBOROUGH, Mass. (AP) — Lee Nguyen scored on a right-footed blast in the 22nd minute and the New England Revolution added a late goal to beat the Chicago Fire 2-0 on Saturday night.
Nguyen's goal came after he played his corner kick short and slipped unmarked into the left side of the area. Scott Caldwell fed it back to Nguyen, who one-timed it into the far corner of the goal.
Femi Hollinger-Janzen made it 2-0 with a header for the Revolution (2-3-7) in the 84th minute.
Kei Kamara made his New England debut two days after being acquired in a trade from the Columbus Crew. Kamara scored 22 goals for the Crew last season, tied for the most in MLS, but had a falling out with the club after an on-field dispute with Federico Higuain over who would take a penalty kick last Saturday in a 4-4 tie with the Montreal Impact.
The Fire dropped to 1-4-4.
