Chicago Fire stunned Portland Timbers in a fiery opener, with Dje D’Avilla lighting up the scoreboard early—scoring and assisting within 14 minutes to give Chicago a 2-0 lead. Robin Lod netted the first goal, then D’Avilla added his own just five minutes later. Portland clawed back with Finn Surman’s first career goal in the 85th minute, but it wasn’t enough. The win vaults Chicago into third in the Eastern Conference, while new Timbers coach Martí Cifuentes suffered a brutal debut loss. Both teams return Wednesday: Timbers host San Diego FC, Fire travel to Orlando City.
