Takes six shots in loss Beric took six shots (one on target) in Saturday's 1-0 defeat against Orlando City.

Impact Beric was dangerous on Saturday, but he wasn't accurate enough with his shooting to give Orlando too much trouble. He will want to be more clinical next weekend against the Red Bulls, which have conceded 24 goals in 19 matches this season.

Takes two shots off bench Beric subbed into Sunday's match against Columbus just before the hour mark, and he took two shots (one on target) in the 1-0 victory.

Impact Beric added some energy and impetus late in the game as an impact substitute as his side earned a win against the Crew on Sunday. He will hope to be able to do it again Wednesday versus Inter Miami.

Has little impact off bench Beric had one off-target shot after coming off the bench during Wednesday's scoreless draw against New York City FC.

Impact Beric came off the bench for the second consecutive match, replacing Stanislav Ivanov in the 64th minute. Once again, the striker failed to make an impact for Chicago and extended his current scoring drought to five games. With only two goals over 17 appearances this season, the striker will probably remain a substitute for Sunday's home match against New York City FC.

Takes four shots against Toronto Beric took four shots (one on goal) in Saturday's 2-1 loss to Toronto.

Impact Beric had four shot attempts, but Alex Bono made a good stop on the one shot Beric had on target as Chicago could only cash in on one out of its 31 shot attempts. Beric also created a chance and committed a foul before he was subbed off in the 57th minute. He only has two goals through 15 appearances this season compared to 12 goals in 23 appearances last season. Chicago will look to bounce back on the road against Philadelphia on Sunday.

Ends scoring drought Beric notched one goal on four shots (two on target) while creating one chance in Wednesday's win over Orlando City. He also sent one cross.

Impact Beric was on a 10-game scoreless drought before Wednesday, as he found the back of the net following a great through ball from Alvaro Medran to defeat Brandon Austin in a one-on-one situation. This was just the second goal of the striker on the season, but as Chicago's main offensive reference, he should remain in the lineup moving forward.

Impact Beric was not able to find the back of the net Wednesday but he was still active in front of the net with four shots attempted. The striker is going through a goal drought as he has failed to score since the opening match on Apr. 18. He will look to bounce back Saturday versus Philadelphia Union.

Impact Beric took over for Chinoso Offor after halftime but could put their team on the board despite dominating possession and generating more shots. With no goals since the first game of the season, Beric doesn't offer much value in comparison to his 12-goal effort from the 2020 campaign.

Four shots in win Beric shot four times (three on goal) during Saturday's 1-0 win over Miami.

Impact Beric seemed desperate to get on the scoresheet, peppering the Miami net non-stop. Unfortunately the forward was denied well a few times and couldn't get that goal. It was still a strong performance though, and one that bodes well for a Saturday clash with Montreal.

Gun-shy in loss Beric took one shot (none on target) and created three chances in the 1-0 loss to D.C. United on Thursday.

Impact Beric had every chance possible to not only attempt at leveling the game, but to also put Chicago in the lead. However, he only took a single chance out of the plethora of opportunities he had. Granted, he did at least create chances out of them by setting up teammates. The issue is that Beric generates his floor and ceiling from his shot and his shot only. It is a little worrisome too that his shot volume has taken a massive dip from his first two appearances where he totaled 10 shots, compared to his most recent three appearances where he has totaled five shots. It is better to take a concerning approach to playing him for the time being.
