Inter Miami endure frustrating week

Inter Miami

Inter Miami winless for their second consecutive game

Inter Miami was held to a 1-1 draw against Canadian giants Toronto FC. The draw denies Inter Miami the opportunity to overtake Columbus Crew at the top of the table. This result comes before their midweek clash against Los Angeles FC, which takes place at their home stadium.

Miami get a draw despite dominant display

The Herons will be distraught at the result, considering how much better they played than their opposition. Inter Miami managed to dominate most of the match, controlling the midfield with Messi and Busquets at the heart of it. Miami’s frustrating night can largely be attributed to Toronto’s goalkeeper, who was sharp and forced an incredible nine saves throughout the match. Despite pressing Toronto in their own half and controlling the tempo of the game, they failed to break through a well-organized Toronto defense. The hosts will also feel unlucky, considering they had two disallowed goals.

Miami looking to Messi to turn things around

Inter Miami will hope to be better prepared for a more challenging encounter when they face Los Angeles FC for a place in the semifinals. The Herons will be looking to their talisman, Lionel Messi, to overturn a 1-0 deficit. However, it won’t be an easy match, as they face a well-organized Los Angeles FC that barely allows any space for opponents to strike.

Messi is known for his ability to pick defenders’ pockets, find space, and make crucial passes, which will be vital for their chances of progressing. No matter how good any defense is, with a passer and visionary like Messi and a finisher like Suárez, they always stand a chance.
