However, qualification was reaching out to them. Lionel Messi and his teammates from Inter Miami, the best team in MLS at the end of the regular season, were beaten to the wire on the pitch of Atlanta United (2-1), Saturday evening (American time) in front of more than 68,000 spectators, during the second leg of the first round of the elite playoffs of the North American Championship.
The Argentine star and the Floridians started the match well by opening the score, through David Martinez (40th) on a royal serve from Federico Redondo (the son of Fernando, the ex-Real Madrid player). Derrick Williams equalized (1-1, 58th) and Xande Silva gave Atlanta success in added time (2-1, 90th + 4).
Objective, Conference final
Inter Miami winning with the same score of 2-1 a week earlier in the first leg, the two teams will decide next weekend in a third decisive match. “La Pulga” and his team will play at home to try to reach the Eastern Conference final.
