Tomas Chancalay’s second half tally leads Revolution to a 1-0 victory at Chicago
Revolution forward Tomas Chancalay has found his groove as an attacking left side forward in head coach Caleb Porter’s 4-2-3-1 scheme.
The elusive shadow in the Revolution’s offense scored the lone goal in Saturday’s much needed 1-0 victory over the Chicago Fire at Soldier’s Field. The Revolution will close out the two- game road swing at New York Red Bulls on May 11.
The Revolution improved to 2-7-1 with their first road victory and are 1-0-1 against the Fire this season. The Revolution extended their unbeaten streak against the Fire to 12 matches.
Chancalay has scored in back-to-back MLS games and he netted four tallies in six Concacaf Champions Cup matches this season to lead the team in goals against all competitions. Striker Giacomo Vrioni set up Chancalay on a break in that he finished with an arching strike off the left foot.
Goalkeeper Aljaz Ivacic recorded a clean sheet with two saves in his Revolution debut. Ivacic secured the victory with a spectacular save on a penalty kick by Xherdan Shaqiri in the 73rd minute.
