After a 0-0 draw against Nashville, Inter Miami faced their arch-opponent LAFC, and boy, was it a match to remember. The Inter Miami team is currently in their protagonist era.
With an abysmal start to becoming one of the biggest teams in the American League, their journey was equivalent to watching a movie.
Another thing that made this match more significant was how LAFC defeated Inter Miami the first time they met. Payback was due, and the boys in the pink made sure that the world knew it.
Statistically, it was LAFC that had more shots on goal when compared to Messi’s Inter Miami. But the boys in pink used surgical precision to move past the goalie and score three awesome goals.
This precision was noticed quite early on in the game when Facundo Farias opened the doors and scored a goal at just around the 14th-minute mark.
The Payback
Following the first goal by Farais, there were no goals for a long time. However, Jodi Alba did everyone a favor and scored the second goal of the match just as soon as the second half began.
The goal was scored in a perfectly coordinated manner that reminded fans of the Barcelona magic. Following this, Jordi Alba scored another goal in the 83rd minute, and this pretty much sealed the deal.
Still, LAFC and Ryan Hollingshead did not lose sight of the match and ended it with one single goal at the 90th-minute mark. But it was too late to cause any problems or differences.
The match was one of the most star-studded matches of the league, as several names like Leonardo DiCaprio, Selena Gomez, LeBron James, and many more.
And with this victory under Messi’s leadership, his team won over Hollywood in the most daring manner. Keep following our page for more sports-related content.
