Hugo Cuypers scores again as Fire blank Montreal

Hugo Cuypers scored his MLS-leading 13th goal this season, Philip Zinckernagel added a goal and an assist, and the Fire beat CF Montreal 2-0 on Saturday at Saputo Stadium in Montreal.

Cuypers has at least one goal in each games he has played this season and is just the third player in MLS history to score in 10 consecutive regular-season contests.

Chris Brady had six saves for Chicago and has six shutouts this season.

The Fire (7-4-2), who beat D.C. United 3-1 on Wednesday to snap a three-game losing streak, have won back-to-back games.

Zinckernagel ran onto a failed clearance attempt by Brayan Vera and skipped a first-touch shot from just inside the top of the penalty box into the net to open the scoring in the 14th minute.

Thomas Gillier had four saves for Montreal (4-8-1).

The Fire beat Montreal 3-0 at Soldier Field on Feb. 28.
