Soccer-Accam fires Chicago to 1-0 win over New York City FC

April 24 (Reuters) - David Accam fired into an empty net after a goalkeeping blunder to give Chicago a 1-0 win over 10-man New York City FC on Friday in Major League Soccer. The Ghanian international's 20th minute goal was enough for the Fire (3-3-0) to post a third consecutive win. NYCFC's backup goalkeeper Ryan Meara, in place for the suspended Josh Saunders, mishandled the ball when trying to prevent a corner, allowing Accam to swoop. Three minutes later, Accam drew the foul that would put NYCFC a man down after breaking clear, taken down by Andrew Jacobson. NYCFC fell to 1-4-3, their winless streak reaching six matches. In the night's other match, Nick LaBrocca netted a 79th minute equaliser to ensure the Colorado Rapids drew 1-1 with FC Dallas. The Rapids dominated possession but had little to show for it before LaBrocca nailed a shot from the top of the box on an assist by Dillon Powers. Mauro Diaz earlier goaled in the first half for Dallas (4-2-2). (Writing by Jahmal Corner; Editing by Ian Ransom)
