Messi misses a penalty and Inter Miami receives a harsh corrective

Inter Miami was looking for a win against Nashville to take first place in the Eastern Conference and go to the top, but the opposite happened. They were badly beaten (4-1) and are 5 points behind their rival. Despite how large the score ended up being, everything was resolved during the second half.

The local team took the lead with a goal from Najar (17′), but Inter Miami was soon able to react, having the opportunity to equalize from eleven meters, but Schwake guessed Leo Messi’s intentions and the Argentine was unable to dedicate the goal to his father Jorge Messi, who died just over a week ago.

Inter Miami continued to insist and in the end were able to tie the game just before the break thanks to a goal from Segovia that took advantage of Leo’s assist.

At the start of the second half everything was clearly going to go to Nashville. A double from Mukhtar and a goal from Surridge in a period of just 15 minutes was a mountain too hard to climb for Inter, who have lost three in a row. Messi angrily protested one of the goals against the referee since he had received a very clear foul on the edge of the area. The former Barça player almost scored in the final stretch with a double shot against the post and a great goal disallowed. It wasn’t his night.
