Brian McBride, whose scoring touch and tenacity earned him fans on both sides of the Atlantic and helped open doors for other US players in England, had a goal waved off in the second half yesterday, and the Chicago Fire settled for a scoreless draw with D.C. United in McBride’s final home game.
The 38-year-old McBride, who is retiring at the end of the season, left the field to a standing ovation when he was substituted in the 89th minute.
With both teams eliminated from playoff contention, the attention centered on McBride, one of the best forwards the US has ever produced. He ranks third on the US national team’s scoring list, still shares the Columbus Crew record for goals, and was so beloved at Fulham that the English Premier League team named a Craven Cottage bar after him.
