OR Inter Miami met shock defeat at home 3-2 to Atlanta United and eliminated from the continuation of the MLS playoffs, with Jordi Alba after the match to attacking the referee.
The Spanish full-back headed towards him and started shouting at him “You are a hen! You are a hen!“, before the referee leaves for the locker room and people from the Miami team remove the soccer player so that he does not stray further.
After the match, the former Barcelona ace expressed his disagreement with the system of the competition. “We were the most consistent team in the regular season, we set a record for points, but we didn’t win the match we wanted more than anything. I’m not going to change the format myself, but it seems a bit unfair. I think that the champion of one region should play with the champion of the other“, he emphasized and added: “It’s a blow for us. We deserved to score more goals in the last two games but goalkeeper Guzan made the difference».
