The headline on ‘World News Live’ today is all about the impressive turnaround of Inter Miami in Major League Soccer. The team is currently riding a six-game unbeaten streak and leading the race for the Supporters’ Shield.
Just a little over a month ago, head coach Gerardo ‘Tata’ Martino was on the hot seat after suffering humiliating defeats. Reports even suggested that Martino could be replaced by Xavi Hernández from Barcelona. Martino was critical of his players during this rough patch, pointing out their lack of commitment on the field.
Miami’s underperformance was largely attributed to an injury crisis, but everything changed with the return of Lionel Messi. Since Messi rejoined the team, Miami’s fortunes have drastically improved and they are now excelling in MLS.
Martino, who has a distinguished coaching career with successes in South America, Mexico, and MLS, is known for his attacking style of play. This style has contributed to Miami’s high-scoring games, despite having a porous backline. In fact, Miami has scored 32 goals in just 12 MLS games, the highest tally in the league.
Fans of Inter Miami are thrilled with the team’s current form and are hopeful that they can maintain this level of performance throughout the season. With Martino at the helm and players like Messi leading the charge, the team is looking like a strong contender for the Supporters’ Shield. Stay tuned to ‘World News Live’ for more updates on Inter Miami’s journey in MLS.
