David Accam scored his 8th goal in the Major League Soccer for Chicago Fire after finishing off an eye-catching move in his side's 3-2 defeat against New York Red Bulls on Friday night.

The Ghana international was on target after a Red Bulls corner was cleared and Accam raced onto the ball, speeding away from Connor Lade before a smart turn lost both the defender and goalkeeper Luis Robles, allowing him to tap into an open net.

The hosts needed a response and they got one in the 28th minute through Wright-Phillips, who toe-poked in from just inside the area after a pass from Kljestan.

A Lloyd Sam cutback led to the equalizer 10 minutes later as Grella turned in the area before firing in to make it 2-2.

A penalty in the 71st minute would separate the two teams as Michael Stephens brought down Sam and Kljestan stepped up, sending Sean Johnson the wrong way.
