Ghana attacker David Accam scored a sublime finish for Chicago Fire in their 2-2 draw with DC United in the MLS on Friday night.

In the 29th minute at the Toyota Park, the Black Stars player broke free in the middle and outpaced his markers with blistering pace before unleashing a thunderous low drive from the 25 meters which sailed into the net.

Fire had pulled even 7 minutes after the visitors had taken the lead and Accam put them in the lead for the first time in the game. But the United, who had two Ghanaian players - Lloyd Sam and Patrick Nyarko, in action levelled in stoppage-time to steal a point from the game.

Accam's fabulous strike becomes his 8th goal in 19 league appearances this season for Fire as he attempts to equal his goal numbers last season (10) goals.
