FRISCO, Texas — Defenders Andrew Gutman and Leonardo Barroso scored two minutes apart late in the second half of Barroso’s league debut, and the Chicago Fire spoiled FC Dallas’ home opener with a 3-1 victory Saturday night.
The win was the first with the Fire for Gregg Berhalter, who took over as coach and director of football in October.
Logan Farrington used an assist from Anderson Julio to score for the first time this season and give Dallas the lead in the 57th minute. Farrington had four goals and eight assists in 29 appearances as a rookie last season.
The Fire scored the equalizer in the 82nd minute when Gutman used an assist from Hugo Cuypers and 19-year-old midfielder Sergio Oregel to find the net for the first time this season. Then Barroso scored the go-ahead goal off a rebound in the 84th.
Cuypers capped the scoring with a penalty-kick goal in the first minute of stoppage time. The PK was awarded after Cuypers was fouled by Sebastien Ibeagha. Cuypers scored twice in a 2-2 draw with D.C. United last week.
Chris Brady finished with five saves for the Fire (1-1-1), including one on a PK attempt by Petar Musa in the fifth minute of second-half stoppage time. Maarten Paes totaled four saves for Dallas (1-1-1).
