Chicago Fire better Real Salt Lake to register their third consecutive victory – MLS News 
Chicago Fire midfielder http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Guatemala-c2913. Where he had scored just a single goal until now, the attacking midfielder got his big break against Real Salt Lake, scoring a hat trick
on Wednesday, September 28, in a Major League Soccer game.
Pappa addressed the media after the game. The Chicago Fire star midfielder was quoted saying:
“I really want to score goals,”
“I love to score goals and tonight I’m excited that I got the hat trick. But the most important is that the team got three really important points.”
The three points have put RSL’s playoffs berth ambitions back on track. They now have 36 points to their name, just three short of New York Red Bulls, who occupy the last postseason berth.
The Fire came to Rio Tinto Stadium as complete underdogs but Pappa, against all odds, opened the scoring in the 9th minute.
The player received a throw-in right outside the box. With ample space to work in, Pappa rounded the goal keeper and found the back of the net.
RSL’s misery was toppled with an 11th minute red card picked up by http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Kyle-Beckerman-c21556.  
The RSL midfielder made a foolish tackle resulting in his ejection. The Claret and Cobalt were at a man’s disadvantage right from the start. Moreover, with a goal down, they had a mountain to climb.
Soon enough, Pappa scored his second and made it even more difficult for RSL to recover. The home side were two goals down with only thirty minutes gone in the first half.
The http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Chicago-Fire-c38795’s midfielder completed his hat-trick in the 75th minute – and in some style. The Guatemalan star dribbled the ball from the sideline and looped the ball over Rimando to make the score line 3-0.
Although their position in the Eastern Conference remains unchanged, 7th, the Men in Red have given themselves a great chance for the playoffs after picking up nine points in the last five fixtures.
