06/05/2010 - Bridgeview, IL (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - The Chicago Fire earned a 2-1 win over the Philadelphia Union in Major League Soccer action at Toyota Park on Saturday night.
Goals by Baggio Husidic and Marco Pappa on each side of the half were enough to snap a four-game winless run by the Fire (3-3-4).
Husidic put the home side up in the 14th minute with his third goal of the season. Patrick Nyarko set up the goal when he beat a defender on the wing and dribbled into the Philadelphia penalty area before slotting a pass to the Bosnian for an easy finish.
The assist was Nyarko's sixth of the season.
That was how the score stayed until Pappa scored his third of the season in the 74th to give the Fire a 2-0 advantage. Philadelphia goalkeeper Chris Seitz made a save on a tough shot from Fire attacker Justin Mapp, but Pappa was there to knock home the rebound.
The Union (2-6-1) got a goal back in stoppage time by Danny Mwanga, his third straight stoppage time goal, but it was too little too late for the expansion club.
Both clubs have MLS fixtures this week before the World Cup break, with the Fire hosting Colorado on Wednesday, and the Union traveling to Kansas City on Thursday.

Sportsbook betting odds favor Europe in Ryder Cup
September 19, – Despite holding a decided edge in the all-time series, with 24 wins, 2 ties and 10 losses, Team USA is the underdog again heading into the Ryder Cup in Kidare, Ireland this weekend, according to MySportsbook.com. The Europeans have captured four of the past five editions, including their largest victory ever, an 18 ½ to 9 ½ thumping in Michigan in 2004. Current Ryder Cup betting odds favor the Europeans to continue their winning ways; they are a 4-5 bet to take the title, compared to 6-5 for the Americans.
Despite being knocked out in the first round of World Match play by Shaun Micheel, Tiger Woods is predicted to lead the US charge and be their highest point scorer for the week, with odds listed at 9-4 that he outpoints all other American players, including Jim Furyk, Phil Mickelson and Chris DiMarco to name a few. Team USA has four relatively unknown players on the roster but all four are 2007 tournament winners and have posted some of season’s best performances, each earning over $1.5 million on the PGA TOUR. They include Zach Johnson, Vaughan Taylor, JJ Henry and Brett Wetterich.
The experienced European squad includes the likes of Luke Donald, Sergio Garcia, Padraig Harrington, Jose Maria Olazabal and Darren Clarke, who’s emotions will be tested after the passing of his wife to a battle with cancer. Donald and Garcia are in particularly good form and each is a 5-1 bet to lead the European squad in the points race. Donald has proven he can go head to head with Woods at a major event after a run for the $1.2 million purse at the PGA Championship. Garcia’s Ryder Cup credentials prove he’s ready for battle too.
