CHICAGO - Teal Bunbury scored twice in the New England Revolution’s 2-1 victory over the Chicago Fire on Sunday night.

Bunbury scored to the near post in the third minute, shooting between goalie Bobby Shuttleworth’s legs. Bunbury fired a shot just under the crossbar from distance in the 54th for his fourth goal of the season.
Fabian Herbers scored in the 22nd minute for Chicago, tapping a right-footed shot to the near post that beat goalie Matt Turner. The Fire’s Boris Sekulic and Francisco Calvo missed on headers in the second half.
Turner finished with six saves.
