Cuypers, Gutiérrez help Fire beat Galaxy 2-1, snaps 9-game winless skid

Hugo Cuypers and Brian Gutiérrez each scored a goal Saturday night to help the Chicago Fire snap a nine-game winless skid and beat the LA Galaxy 2-1. Chicago (3-8-6) won for the first time since a 2-1 victory over the Houston Dynamo on April 6. Gutiérrez intercepted a pass near midfield and raced toward the goal before he rolled a shot from 25 yards out that ricocheted off the post before rolling into the net to give the Fire a 2-1 lead in the 61st minute.
