Inter Miami qualified This Friday for the Leagues Cup semi-finals beat Charlotte FC 4-0 In a game where Leo Messi scored the final goal of the Florida team’s victory. It was the match in which the Argentine’s Gerardo ‘Tata’ Martino had to appear the least without his men blaming him. The pink team will play against the Philadelphia Union to qualify for the Leagues Cup final. The Argentine coach featured only one innovation in the eleven, that of Benjamín Cremaschi, one of the heroes of the comeback in Dallas, who won the title at the expense of Paraguayan Diego Gómez.

Inter Miami voluntarily threw the ball onto the field, made an offer against a kicked Charlotte, and blatantly bet on the counter without being impressed by Martino’s men. a defensive pass that continues to show improvements and Sergio Busquets’ excellent work has a lot to do with it.

The discussion broke out in the 10th minute after the persistent attack of the locals, first net handball, which did not yield any results in the Charlotte area, and then collapsed when Harrison Afful drew attention to Dixon Arroyo. . Venezuelan Joseph Martinez Although he did not produce the penalty himself, he took responsibility from eleven meters and completely deceived Croatian Kristijan Kahlina and transformed. His second goal in the Leagues Cup, both from maximum penalties.

From the 20th minute, Charlotte stepped forward and the team, led by Italian Christian Lattanzio, became the protagonist with the ball, approaching the local area more regularly without getting Drake Callender in trouble. On the other hand, the arrival of Inter Miami has worried the Charlotte defense. So the local midfielder, who had a great game in the 32nd minute, found DeAndre Yedlin’s coming from the right with a long pass and invented a serve into the heart of the area where Finn came in completely alone. robert taylor second place This is his fourth goal, which confirms it’s the team’s biggest reveal since Messi’s arrival. Until then, Taylor had scored just two goals in 19 MLS games.

At halftime, the scoreboard reflected what was seen on the field. Charlotte’s proposal was so weak and ineffective, always looking for the small area of ​​Miami where Callender had no trouble keeping the ball. Charlotte moved to the bench at halftime and brought in Belgium’s Brecht Dejaeghere and Ghana’s Patrick Agyemang. Realizing this positively in the attack, the team managed to take the first shot to the goal in the 54th minute. Calender solved it well under the sticks.

Messi’s first clear scoring chance was a long time ago.. It was a great collective game with Taylor’s pass in the 68th minute, but his shot hit the defense and he went into a corner. The third came out of his boots, started the game, dribbled the ball down mid lane and left for Diego Gómez, who had just come in from the bench. Paraguayan awarded Leonardo Campana of Ecuador, but the ball did not reach him as he was a French defender. Adilson Malanda put it in his own castle. That was the phrase in 1978.

However, a DRV PNK Stadium party, messi goal The Argentine player did not miss the appointment and scored the fourth goal, finishing the game in the 86th minute. A beautiful pass from Campana’s guest defense found his left foot, and Spider-Man was the superhero chosen for the occasion. With this goal, Messi has already scored eight goals in just five games against Inter Miami..

Despite Charlotte’s improvement a bit, Inter Miami has always kept the game in check and has been able to try new things and disrupt the established scenario. Thus, Jordi Alba could once be seen changing groups to act as a winger.
