On the brink of elimination in the Concacaf Champions Cup quarterfinals, Inter Miami will hope to rely on Lionel Messi to lead the Herons to a comeback against LAFC.
Inter Miami underwhelmed in the first leg of the Concacaf Champions Cup quarterfinals. The Herons only mustered three shots on target at BMO Stadium and were held goalless for the first time under Javier Mascherano. Even worse, LAFC's Nathan Ordaz found the back of the net in the 57th minute to give the hosts a 1–0 lead heading into the second leg at Chase Stadium.
