CHESTER, Pa. (AP) Borek Dockal had a penalty-kick goal in the 87th minute and two assists, helping the Philadelphia Union beat the Chicago Fire 3-1 on Wednesday night.

Philadelphia (5-5-3) is unbeaten in its last four matches - with three victories. Chicago (4-7-2) has allowed multiple goals in 11 of its last 15 road games.

Ilsinho put Philadelphia in front in the 44th minute. He chested Dockal's chipped pass at the corner of the 18-yard box, split two defenders and scored from a difficult angle. Cory Burke made it 2-0 in the 51st with an open header of Dockal's cross.

Alan Gordon scored in his second straight game to pull Chicago within one in the 56th. Brandt Bronico ran past the defense for a through ball, dribbled alone along the right side and crossed it to Gordon for an easy tap-in.
