The nickname 'Windy City' in Chicago was not the result of any real wind gusts, but rather the reputation of 19th-century politicians for being profit-hungry blowhards. Just don't tell CF Montreal goalkeeper Jonathan Sirois, who died as a result of a strong wind in a stoppage time en route to a stunning collapse against the Fire in Chicago on Saturday. In the last minutes of second-half stoppage time, Kellyn Acosta scored twice after the 90-minute mark to defeat visiting CF Montreal. Chicago (1-2-1, 4 points) got off to a rocky start in the 82nd minute as Montreal sub and ex-Fire defender Raheem Edwards drew a warning for a suspicious elbow, limiting his team to ten men. Brian Gutierrez, a homegrown midfielder, converted from the penalty spot two minutes later (1-2-1, 4 points), before Hugo Cuypers tied the score 3-3 in the fifth minute of stoppage time.
