The goal gave Zinckernagel 14 on the season and 27 goal contributions overall. This time the ball did not need a second-chance effort when Dje D'Avilla leapt toward the pass and headed the ball past St. Clair. Chicago outshot Minnesota 18-10, had five more shots on goal than the home side (9-4) and out-possessed the Loons 59.2 to 40.8 percent. Down 2-0 at that point of the second half, Minnesota United (15-7-9, 54 points) thought they cut their two-goal deficit in half in the 68th minute when Mamadou Dieng tapped in a loose ball created from a Brady save. In the 87th minute, tempers flared between the two sides after St. Clair saved a penalty shot by Chicago's Hugo Cuypers.
