CHICAGO (AP) — Chris Brady had five saves to help Chicago play Atlanta United to a 0-0 tied Saturday night, despite the fact that the Fire didn't record a shot on goal.

Brady made back-to-back stops in the 79th minute and two more down the stretch for Chicago.

The Fire (2-4-4) are scoreless in three consecutive games — including a 4-0 loss to Real Salt Lake last time out — following a 2-1 win over the Houston Dynamo on April 6.

Atlanta (3-3-3) is winless in four consecutive games since Jamal Thiaré scored two goals in a 3-0 win over the Fire on March 31.

Atlanta had 60.5% possession and outshot the Fire 16-8, including 5-0 on target.

Nadal’s surgically repaired hip and his 37-year-old legs didn’t provide him with the necessary means to be competitive enough on Saturday as ninth-ranked Hubert Hurkacz overwhelmed the 22-time Grand Slam champion on the Spaniard’s beloved clay for a 6-1, 6-3 victory in the third round of the Italian Open. It was Nadal's first match against a top-10 player in 1½ years and he couldn't have been more disappointed.
