Dynamo, Fire tie in match shortened by lightning

Mother nature was not a fan of the Chicago Fire or Houston Dynamo on Sunday.

The two teams played to a 1-1 draw at Toyota Park in Bridgeview, Ill. in a match that was delayed twice by lightning before ultimately being called in the 66th minute.

Will Bruin and Logan Pause exchanged goals midway through the first half. Bruin got on the end of a pass from Brian Ching in the 24th minute before the Fire equalized three minutes later through Pause's first goal of the season.

Both teams looked for a winner, but the match was called off shortly after the hour mark as heavy lightning returned to the area.

Here are the match highlights:
