👀  Must-See Content | Berić chases consecutive match scoring record

After scoring in his fifth-straight game on Saturday against Montreal, forward Robert Berić matched the Club's all-time record for consecutive matches with a goal. He and David Accam ('17) now share the mark, which Berić can break if he keeps his scoring form going on Wednesday in Kansas City.

🤔 Fast Fact

Fire midfielder Gastón Giménez (Paraguay) and Kansas City forward Alan Pulido (Mexico) will both miss Wednesday's match having been called into international duty. Before filing a one-time switch to represent La Alibirroja, Gimenéz suited up for Argentina at the international level. Coincidentally, Giménez's sole appearance for Argentina came in a 2-0 friendly win against Pulido and Mexico on Nov. 17, 2018.
