Inter Miami play Nashville in MLS on Saturday, looking to consolidate their position in second place in the Eastern Conference table. For the second game in a row, the Herons could only muster a draw as Casemiro canceled out Robert Lewandowski’s early opener for Chicago Fire, as Miami failed to fully capitalize on leaders Nashville falling to Toronto in the other game.
With 44 points in the bag, Lionel Messi and co. have now slipped to third place in the overall MLS standings as Vancouver Whitecaps stole a march to move into second and their ambitions of lifting the Supporters’ Shield trophy took yet another hit.
Thanks for the submission!
Messi himself has endured a frustrating spell in front of goal over the last two games following his spectacular four-goal haul against Montreal on 30 August.
Speaking of Nashville, the side succumbed to just their third loss of the top-flight campaign on Wednesday. An own goal from Niklas Dorsch in the third minute put them in front, but their hosts responded late in the second half.
Daniel Salloi equalized for Toronto in the 72nd minute before Emilio Aristizabal won it for the Canadian side in the third added minute, as Nashville saw their six-game unbeaten run ended.
