Luka Stojanovic's free kick goal in the 69th minute provided the lone tally in a 1-0 victory for the host Chicago Fire over Inter Miami on Saturday night at Soldier Field.
Stojanovic scored his third goal of the season after his shot over Miami's wall of defenders was mishandled by goalkeeper John McCarthy, who let it slip through his grasp and into the goal.
The tally was Chicago's first goal since April 24, snapping a three-match scoreless streak and a string of four consecutive losses for the Fire (1-4-1, 4 points). It was also Chicago's first victory in 12 matches.
