Columbus snuffs Fire at Crew Stadium

Soccer Betting Lines

07/03/2010 - Columbus, OH (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - The Columbus Crew topped the Chicago Fire 2-1 in Major League Soccer action at Crew Stadium on Saturday night.

There was very little action in the game except for a three minute span at the end of the first half, when all three goals were scored.

The Crew opened the scoring in the 43rd minute when Jason Garey drove into the Fire penalty area, and when Chicago goalkeeper Andrew Dykstra came out but failed to hang onto the ball, Adam Moffat was Johnny-on-the-spot to knock the ball home into a wide open net.

It was Moffat's second goal of the season.

But the Fire answered less than a minute later when a cross from the right side, ticketed for the head of Chicago attacker Patrick Nyarko, was headed into his own net by Crew defender Frankie Hejduk.

But the Crew (8-2-3) got the game winner less than a minute later when an Eddie Gaven cross from the right was headed home by Garey for his first goal of the season.

Columbus will aim to build on the effort at Houston next Saturday, while Chicago (4-4-5) hopes to rebound vs. Real Salt Lake on Thursday.
