On the morning of May 19 (Hanoi time), despite playing at Chase’s home field, Inter Miami faced many difficulties against DC United.
Despite fielding almost the strongest lineup, with Messi, Suarez, Alba and Busquets starting, Inter Miami could not penetrate the away team’s net for more than 90 minutes of play.
Even in terms of finishing statistics or creating opportunities, DC United is the better team. Christian Benteke and his teammates launched up to 15 shots toward Inter Miami’s goal (3 hits).
Meanwhile, the home team only launched a total of 8 shots (2 on target). After a 0-0 draw against Orlando City in round 13, Inter Miami’s attack continued to have a disappointing day.
Messi or Suarez cannot make a difference like from the beginning of the season. In that context, another South American player spoke up.
Minute 90+4, the player coming from the bench, Leonardo Campana, had a smart escape and a dangerous shot to score the only goal for Inter Miami.
The Ecuadorian star became a hero, helping Inter Miami win their 9th match in MLS since the beginning of the season. The Miami coastal city team also had their 9th unbeaten match in MLS in the past two months.
After 14 rounds, Messi and his teammates continue to lead the Eastern rankings, with 1 point more than the team behind Cincinnati (but playing one more match than their opponents).
