After their disappointing exit from the Concacaf Champions Cup, Inter Miami made a strong comeback in the MLS by defeating the New York Red Bulls 4-1. The Herons took a 3-1 lead by halftime, with Fafa Picault and Luis Suarez both scoring. This marked an end to Suarez’s nine-match scoreless streak.
Manager Javier Mascherano had emphasized the need for the team to be more than just Lionel Messi, and they proved that with their performance. In the second half, Messi linked up with Telasco Segovia, contributing to Miami’s fourth goal. This teamwork illustrated the understanding between the two players, showcasing Miami’s intent to drive their attacking play with pace.

Messi’s skill creates chances and this example highlights how Miami aims to play. Though the Red Bulls weren’t at the same level as their previous opponents, it was essential for Miami to regain form ahead of their next match against Minnesota United on May 10.
