HARRISON, N.J. — Thierry Henry scored his first goal since April 28 to lead the New York Red Bulls to a 1-0 victory over the Chicago Fire on Wednesday.

In the 71st minute, Henry blasted a left-footed shot that went in off the right post for his 10th goal of the season. New York (10-5-5) is the only MLS team that is undefeated at home, improving to 6-0-3.
