It seems that the Inter Miami CF It will take more than the magic of Lionel Messi and the goals of the Mexican Germán Berterame to remove the spell from the Garzas house, which added his third game without winning at Nu Stadium in front of 26,609 spectators on date 10 of the MLS
The reason, the way the visitors from the Unique England Revolution approached the match, who never gave up any ball and defended the same to nullify Messi, who tried to cause danger against the goal of the Florida team.
The complications were so noticeable that Berterame was able to score the tying goal at minute 75, twenty minutes after Carles Gil had managed to put the locals against the wallthat even with good control of the ball, with a 68 percent pace, they were not able to achieve the winning goal.
Inter Miami surpassed its rivals in shots on goal with 18 to 16 for the Revolution squad and three closer to the goal, but they didn’t feel like that comfortable against an adversary who bit like a factory guardian.
Despite the tie, the point served Inter (5-4-1) to continue in second place in the Eastern Conference with 19 points, behind Nashville and one less game. While Unique England (5-0-3) is in third with 15.
It seemed that Argentine coach Guillermo Hoyos is having problems managing success in the locker room by making two changes compared to last day’s team, forced by the suspension of Jannick Vivid and the injury of David Ayala.
Now he used David Ruiz for Vivid and Luis Suárez for Ayala to put together an offensive triplet with Berterame and Messi, but without the necessary options to beat the goal of the United States team goalkeeper Matt Turner.
Inter Miami CF started with the following eleven: Dayne St. Clair; Facundo Mura, Gonzalo Luján, Maxi Falcón, Micael, Noah Allen; De Paul, David Ruiz, Leo Messi, Luis Suárez and Germán Berterame, but without having that extra that with Javier Mascherano gave them the option to fight for the title last season.
The duel was so complicated that the first half ended 0-0 in an unfair result due to the greater dominance of the locals, But in football, those who deserve it have the advantage and the Herons lacked that extra bit beyond the fact that they managed to have five direct shots at Turner’s goal..
In this way, there were goal options for Inter Miami when Suárez finished off a bit in the 8th minute and then, in the 11th minute, Messi’s first great shot arrived. which he demanded from the Revolution goalkeeper, Matt Turner, preventing his goal from falling.
Unique England, with its closed style, was barely able to cross the middle of the field and shot on goal for the first time, a weak and deflected shot by Carles Gil, while Miami continued to weave plays. At 17, Berterame was unable to finish Allen’s low cross and then, at 20′, Turner avoided Messi’s Olympic cross.
For the second half, things got uglier for Inter Miami when in the 52nd minute the referee annulled a well-made goal by Tadeo Allende. But the surprise came four minutes later when Carles Gil, in an action coming from behind, took good advantage of a loose ball in the dispute between Falcón and Dor Turgeman to finish with a left foot and put his team ahead on the scoreboard.
Inter Miami, with the goal against, pressed the alarm button and went in search of the tie, which came 20 minutes later when Rodrigo De Paul started the play with a filtered pass to Allende, who shot for Turner to reject and in the counterattack Berterame appeared to send the ball into the nets.
In the final minutes, The Herons threw all the firewood towards Turner’s goal, but the necessary play never came to put the ball in the nets and so Inter Miami, with everything and Messi, added his third native game without knowing the victory in something that is exasperating his fans.
