Philadelphia Union 1-3 Chicago Fire

A Chris Rolfe brace helps Chicago Fire come from behind and collect three points at PPL Park.

Chris Rolfe scored twice as Chicago Fire came from behind to beat Philadelphia Union at PPL Park.

The hosts opened the scoring, courtesy of a Jalil Anibaba own goal, in the 34th minute.

Chicago were level nine minutes later when Rolfe thumped home from eight yards following a clever pass from Sherjill MacDonald.

The turnaround was complete in first-half stoppage time as Arne Friedrich headed in from a Marco Pappa corner kick.

Rolfe struck again 11 minutes after the break with a powerful long-range shot that flew into the top left corner.
