Inter Miami drew in the first match at their new stadium
The Inter Miami team failed to win in the first match held at their new Nu Stadium arena. This was reported by Zamin.uz.
The match against the New England Revolution club within the MLS Cup ended in a 1-1 draw. In this exciting game, played in front of the eyes of fans in the state of Florida, legendary forwards Lionel Messi and Luis Suarez were unable to capture the opponent's goal.
According to information provided by Goal.com, the meeting ended with an unexpected result. In the 76th minute of the game, German Berterame equalized the score, providing a worthy response to the goal scored by Carles Gil.
Despite the wonderful atmosphere reigning at Miami Freedom Park stadium and the unceasing support of the fans, the visitors' goalkeeper Matt Turner displayed true heroism. During the match, he averted nine dangerous situations and managed to repel accurate shots from Messi and Suarez.
It should be noted that 39-year-old Luis Suarez took to the field in the starting line-up for the second time this year. The team's interim head coach Guillermo Hoyos had rated the capabilities of his stars highly before the meeting.
The specialist particularly dwelt on the experience and skill of Luis Suarez, recalling that during his career he scored more than 600 goals. He also emphasized that the joint goal count of Messi and Suarez has exceeded 1,500 — a rare indicator for the world of football.
In the coach's opinion, fans visit the stadium precisely to enjoy the magical play of these two stars. However, the former Barselona club stars were unable to fully demonstrate their skills in the decisive minutes of the match.
Currently, Inter Miami's leadership, in particular Jorge Mas, is working on a strategy for the effective use of the so-called Messi effect. The club's main goal is to maintain a high level and prestige even after the departure of the Argentine star from the team.
At present, the team is occupying high positions in the Eastern Conference standings and remains one of the main contenders for the championship title.
