After being knocked out of the Club World Cup by PSG, Messi’s Inter Miami returned to league action, building on the momentum gained from matches that inevitably raised the team’s level. Yes, because when you face European teams of a certain caliber, you have to give something extra.
This was evident in the three subsequent matches, which saw three consecutive victories for the American team. Two of those were away from home. However, the task now is more complicated. Cincinnati, currently second in the Eastern Conference of the American league, is not an easy obstacle to overcome. Of course, after four wins in a row, a heavy home defeat against Columbus undermined some of the team’s confidence. Messi and his teammates can exploit those cracks to continue their positive run.
This is also because there are only four points separating the two teams – in favor of the hosts – but Inter Miami has played three fewer games. Therefore, they could overtake them in the coming weeks. And since the visiting team is in great shape, not only physically but above all mentally, it is clear that an away win, for their fourth in a row, could be on the cards.h2>
