From the hand of a magnificent Lionel Messi with two goals and an assistance, the Inter Miami shattered this Saturday 5-1 to the New York Red Bulls on the last day of the MLS before the break by the All-Star.
The New Yorkers, who technically play in New Jersey at Sports Illustrated Stadium in Harrison, started very well and advanced in the 15th minute with a bit of Alexander Hack.
But Messi was in charge of unblocking those of Florida, who reached the break with a 3-1 in favor thanks to somewhat from Jordi Alba-on the pass of Mess-and a double of the Venezuelan Telasco Segovia. In addition, the 10 of the Albiceleste certified the beating of Inter Miami with two goals in the second half.
Messi, in an excellent moment in form, accumulates 12 goals in his last seven League matches with six doubles. He has also scored 18 goals in 18 games in this MLS campaign.
Those led by Javier Mascherano thus recovered from the win they suffered on Wednesday 3-0 against Cincinnati. Precisely Cincinnati will be his next rival in the League on July 27 after the MLS celebrated his All-Star with the MX League on Wednesday 23.
As usual in each displacement of Inter Miami, the stands were dyed in rose in a new episode of the 'Messimanía' in the MLS.
Star and overwhelming of Messi and Inter Miami
If the Red Bulls had dreamed the night before with a perfect start, it looked a lot like the first fifteen minutes. With a very high and perfectly coordinated pressure, those of Sandro Schwarz overwhelmed a thick and hesitant inter Miami. Sergio Busquets and Federico Redondo did not appear and Messi and Luis Suarez were disconnected.
Those of Rosa were about to pay expensive several serious errors at the ball out, but finally the Red Bulls arrived in a corner and through Alexander Hack after an unfortunate attempt to clear the Argentine goalkeeper Rocco Ríos Novo.
The goal was an abrupt awakening for Inter Miami, forced to react and that little by little found a way to combine with Messi. From the Boots of the Argentine star was born the comeback visitor. First an absolutely delicious pass for a Jordi Alba was invented in 24 who did not waste such a gift with an unappealable shot and the squad.
Three minutes later, Messi signed a traveled play with another perfect pass for Jordi Alba behind the back of the local right side, Mohammed Sofo. This time the Spanish did not score but attended Segovia.
The Venezuelan sealed the first goal of his double thanks also to the involuntary help of Paraguayan goalkeeper Carlos Coronel, very misguided in that play.
Inter Miami domain was total to the intermediate. Messi stayed close to expanding the score with a dangerous shot that came out bounced and Emil Forsberg, with two good shots of direct fault, was of the little salvage of some Red Bulls turned off.
The punishment for the locals was even more severe when Segovia achieved the third of Inter Miami and the second of her personal account in the discount of the first half.
There was no reaction in the second part of the Red Bulls while Messi put the icing on his spectacular exhibition with somewhat to the counterattack to pass from Sergio Busquets, dodging without touching the ball to colonel at his exit, and with the fifth of his team after Luis Suarez's assistance.
