40 goals and 40 assists in 108 games in the Bodø/Glimt shirt spread over two stays. The Dane was an important player for Scandinavia’s best club, now the 30-year-old is well on his way to playing his way into the hearts of Chicago Fire supporters.

The first three MLS games were without goal involvement from Zinckernagel, then the former Bodø/Glimt star stepped up against league leader Vancouver (Eastern Conference) with an assist and a powerful and straightforward goal to win 1-3. This earned the Dane a spot on the MLS team of the round.
On Saturday, Zinckernagel followed up against CF Montreal. In the starting eleven, Zinckernagel was in the right place at the right time in the box after 40 minutes to safely score.
Zinckernagel was unfortunately cheated as the match winner, the equalizer to 1-1 and the final score came five minutes into the second half.
