The Fire are back in the Eastern Conference play-off race after the win.
Hunter Jumper’s first career goal kept Chicago Fire’s play-off dreams alive after a narrow victory over Eastern Conference leaders Sporting Kansas City on Friday.
Making just his second MLS star the 24-year-old centre-back showed immense bravery in the 13th minute to stoop low and nod the ball past Kansas goalkeeper Jimmy Nielson after Jalil Anibaba’s deep cross was kept alive by Dilly Duka.
