And in the background a new mug for him Messi!
THE Inter Miami defeated Cincinnati on penalties (2-2 tr, 5-4 pt.) and advanced to the final of the US Open, a few days after winning the Leagues Cup. Tata Martino’s team struggled a lot in normal time, after the hosts took the lead in the 18th minute with a goal by Acosta, while in the 53rd minute they took a two-goal lead, with Bathketh finding the net. The guests, however, did not give up and with the Argentinian superstar in front, they made a complete comeback.
THE Messi provided two assists for Campania, one in the 68th minute via a free-kick and the second in the 7th minute of stoppage time with a precise cross from the left with his team-mate heading in on both occasions. As a result, the match went to overtime. That’s where the turnaround was completed, with Martines making it 3-2 in the 93rd minute.
Cincinnati didn’t have their last word with Kumbo equalizing in the 114th minute, forcing the two teams to settle their differences on penalties. Messi hit the first goal, fatal o Haglandwho missed the hosts’ 5th penalty.
