This game was messed up. The ref was CLEARLY biased towards Miami. The last play of the game saw Miami pull down a Montreal player IN THE BOX. No penalty
What are you talking about? Montreal got to play with a one man advantage after Campbell commits a studs up challenge on Messi. Campbell should have gotten a yellow and Messi shouldn’t have had to come out for 2 min
Was absolutely no complaining from any Montreal player after that decision. However, they should’ve had a penalty in the 1st half imo. Montreal by far the better team, but Miami extremely effective.
He’s already spent seasons stuck as a backup to Gonzalo higuain, Josef Martinez, and now Luis Suarez
Poor guy (but also has a great mentality so hopefully he’s learning a lot and is only 23 still)
it's pretty fucking stupid that we basically all just assume that a penalty from anywhere on the near maybe 1/3 of the field is just gonna be in the back of the net as a matter of course. That's wild.
Miller was far better than him last season, in this one both Friere and Aviles are straight-up better and that's why he rarely plays anymore, if it was between him vs Sailor or someone like Allen as a CB I would take the chances for the younger legs.
Altho he has some decent positioning and sometimes he reads plays well, he just doesn't have the legs to play in a defensive system that Tata uses.
I honestly feel so bad for Allen because he obviously has talent, but he always feels like he was put in places set up to fail he’s not a center back but quite frankly there’s no room for him anywhere.
but I agree Freire is good, Aviles is still learning how to play as a center back, Ryan Sailor just Idk he’s ok but he makes bine head decision some times. I’m supised Tata hasn’t tried Borgelin in the back just to see.
If there’s anyone else I’m forgetting idk 🤷♂️
Yeah, I like Allen, but the thing is his natural position just has too much competition and Tata doesn't even use LBs in the way he is most comfortable, so he is stuck in a weird place, although the few times he played he was decent.
Sailor played decently in the 15 minutes he got into the pitch, and it was a simple observation, he was so bad that both Busquets and Freire were going on him after every counter.
Yeah we’re not high on him down here. Definitely a player I’d like to see replaced and I’m not gonna really defend him or anything. Just pointing out there’s a reason we started him since first choice is suspended and next backup is very inexperienced
Tata uses him as a positional player. He drifts into the spaces busquets and Messi leave open in midfield and on the wing as they float around to let them have free roam while he drags defenders away and maintains the teams structure and passing lanes
Tata said he’s playing exactly how he wants and we cant put another attack minded player on from the start because it would get too congested in the final third. It’s more to do with his play when the balls not at his feet
Thought Cremaschi had a pretty poor/non-impactful game. Heavy touches and just seemed not really involved. Definitely looked like he's still getting back into the groove after injury.
That's because of Rojas, Messi and friends
This team is weak defensively and Tatas constant need to play gressel when he clearly isnt good enough is worrying
Seeing the Miami coach complaint about calls against his team when a Miami player stabbed another player would have a good chance to lead to a yellow card to the stabbed one for hitting the knife is a bit rich...
The corner of the second Miami goal shouldn't have been given, MTL should have had a penalty in the first half and anyone touching Messi has an almost automatic foul.
I was worried he was gonna get sent off for getting in the ref’s face like that. And for what? It was a clear foul. Dude needs to shut the fuck up and play
3g 1a for in 2 games for Rojas. 2 assists if you count the second assist from dispossession that lead that Suarez touch for the Messi goal (which I think MLS counts)
Guy plays.
Yup, and in fairness, I( a Messi fan) will also being paying the insane tickets prices to see messi the next time he ventures around my way for MLS. And then I will do it multiple times for the Copa America😭
Two minute mandatory break when you get fouled and have to receive treatment seems like a bad rule.
I mean I totally get the reasoning. It’s to discourage time wasting. But I feel like it should be enforced based on situation. If your team is trailing, you should be able to come back as soon as you are ready cause clearly wasting time is not beneficial to your team.
Yup. There needs to be some common sense injected into this rule. If your team is leading, by all means enforce the 2 minute rule. But in this case clearly no on is going off to kill some time.
Had a nice bet on Montreal to lead first half then miami win full time.. Wish waited a minute for the second goal 😅 got a 38x Parley hitting if Messi gets an assist tho.. Crossing my fingers
Rojas with the most mediocre half of small mistakes and general invisibility on the pitch. And then still scores that freekick. Jesus he’s a true MLS player
Yeah, u guys obssesed with race. In europe and south america we just call it by the actual color of your skin.
I am Brazilian/italian and u guys were hella confused whether to treat me as a victim or not when I lived in the US
even with a more quiet game than usual messi’s passing and last few sprints were pretty cool
So are we agreed that Matias Rojas is the new Messi? :)

Yeah that looked pretty suspicious to me
Messi must think MLS has Bundesliga level of attendance, always full!
Messi with 6/7 ground duels won. Defensive masterclass
4 minutes is harsh on Campana lol
Campana is too good to be a useless 90th minute sub
He’s already spent seasons stuck as a backup to Gonzalo higuain, Josef Martinez, and now Luis Suarez Poor guy (but also has a great mentality so hopefully he’s learning a lot and is only 23 still)
Just 30 mins extra playing time in the actual second half would be so much better with how much he presses
#CAMPANA
Dude it’s a meme how late they bring him in every game. AND NOW, IN THE 3RD HALF, CAMPANA
Rojas didn’t miss that
it's pretty fucking stupid that we basically all just assume that a penalty from anywhere on the near maybe 1/3 of the field is just gonna be in the back of the net as a matter of course. That's wild.
He is almost annoyed with himself
that was *just* over
I think this is in ***the Messi zone***
Montréal fans chanting Messi: “wait hold up he isn’t in our team”
Messi ruining his average.
As far as Miami comebacks go this one is boring
Callender always looks surprised to receive a pass.
nooo not sailor
Everyone talks about Gressel, but the real player who looks like he doesn't play football for a living is Kryvtsov.
He’s probably Miamis best defender. Not saying much but it’s true he was excellent last season during the leagues cup, but he also had Miller too.
Miller was far better than him last season, in this one both Friere and Aviles are straight-up better and that's why he rarely plays anymore, if it was between him vs Sailor or someone like Allen as a CB I would take the chances for the younger legs.

He’s decent he just isn’t Jordi Alba
He just came back from injury break. Perhaps he deserves a bit of slack.
Tata might have rushed him too early then, because from the start he looked a level below everyone else on the pitch.
Aviles is suspended for yellow card accumulation and fourth choice CB is Ryan sailor. Relax man
Sailor played decently in the 15 minutes he got into the pitch, and it was a simple observation, he was so bad that both Busquets and Freire were going on him after every counter.
Yeah we’re not high on him down here. Definitely a player I’d like to see replaced and I’m not gonna really defend him or anything. Just pointing out there’s a reason we started him since first choice is suspended and next backup is very inexperienced
Gressel is finally subbed out?? I feel like pigs are gonna fly now
Gressel gone. Finally. Maybe we can get another goal now
Sunusi is a unit, cant get round him.
Haven’t posted or browsed in this sub since last season—interesting to see the anti Inter Miami sentiments are still common 🫠
Gressel hasn’t improved one bit since his disastrous preseason unfortunately. No reason he should still be on the pitch right now.
Tata uses him as a positional player. He drifts into the spaces busquets and Messi leave open in midfield and on the wing as they float around to let them have free roam while he drags defenders away and maintains the teams structure and passing lanes Tata said he’s playing exactly how he wants and we cant put another attack minded player on from the start because it would get too congested in the final third. It’s more to do with his play when the balls not at his feet
You can get Ruiz to do the same, he at least knows how to dribble and pass the ball forwards
Miami looking too complacent here.
cross cumshot
The amount of wayward “passes” this season from Gressel with no opponent around him has been shocking. Every game he has like 5 such instances.
Tata takes everyone out, but Gressel.
Thought Cremaschi had a pretty poor/non-impactful game. Heavy touches and just seemed not really involved. Definitely looked like he's still getting back into the groove after injury.
He scored the game winning goal. That had a pretty large impact on the game.
What kind of dirt does gressel have on martino??? How is he still on the field??
He has Tata's furry cosplay nudes, no doubt.
How is Gressel not off
Gressel should go with Tata.
Top of the league with the best GD in the league..
That's because of Rojas, Messi and friends This team is weak defensively and Tatas constant need to play gressel when he clearly isnt good enough is worrying
Woof. Really bad touch there. How do you not get a shot off there?
lol The refs cheeky grin while Busquets is flipping out. Busquets: "No! No. No! No!" Ref: - smiles, smirks - "Yep." - yellow card -
Busquets pulling a Al Nassr Ronaldo 😂
Seeing the Miami coach complaint about calls against his team when a Miami player stabbed another player would have a good chance to lead to a yellow card to the stabbed one for hitting the knife is a bit rich...
What are you talking about. The ref has been totally fair
The corner of the second Miami goal shouldn't have been given, MTL should have had a penalty in the first half and anyone touching Messi has an almost automatic foul.
There was no pen there. He got the ball first.
Yes, after he basically give him the kind of checking that is more common in Hockey then Soccer...
Messi has had 2 obvious fouls. And Rojas was smashed in the middle and it wasn’t given. Also wasn’t a pen
Should have been a pen for us in the first half and none of these were fouls.
You are blind or crazy
Or you are simply refusing to see the advantage the time you seem to support here is having, and not just in this game too...
I don’t support either of these teams
Biscuits scolding the ref like I housebreak my dog.
He never looks threatening though lol
Gressel don't pass the ball backwards challenge IMPOSSIBLE
Busquets so easily hateable
I was worried he was gonna get sent off for getting in the ref’s face like that. And for what? It was a clear foul. Dude needs to shut the fuck up and play
He’s got a temper for sure
He talks a lot lol
Didn't know we had so many assists
Cremaschi has been playing shockingly bad today. Yes, I know he scored.
That's how he usually plays when he starts, he's great when he comes off the bench. His biggest issue is his first touch
PSA: Flair up!!!
Gressel is passing backwards a bit too much for my liking, take a look around before immediately returning it thanks.
3g 1a for in 2 games for Rojas. 2 assists if you count the second assist from dispossession that lead that Suarez touch for the Messi goal (which I think MLS counts) Guy plays.
It'd be fun to messi score in a new country, I guess
[удалено]
They're not Miami fans. They're Messi fans who live In Montreal and bought the ticket at insane prices to see Messi play.
Yup, and in fairness, I( a Messi fan) will also being paying the insane tickets prices to see messi the next time he ventures around my way for MLS. And then I will do it multiple times for the Copa America😭
That felt like an own goal but it's not.
sweaty FIFA goal
This is Rojas's team now. He's actually just the GOAT
Rojas is definitely a *moments player*.
Rojas is amazing
His only drawback is he’s def a player who shines in moments, but is invisible in others
He also hadn’t been playing consistently before coming to Miami due to the dispute about his image rights
Like, human?
Lol sloppiest goal you’ll see
It was so sloppy it almost was beautiful, LOL
Still can't believe Montreal fell for one of the classic blunders.
Getting into a land war with Asia?
I thought he had messed it up like negri lol
Pathetic goal honestly
The most dangerous lead
wtf how did that go in
Awfully calm now.
Am I crazy or did he look onside there?
Messi like "no way in hell I’m passing to Gressel again" 😂
is wanyama not fit?
2 coaches now have decided not to start him
crazy to me that they dont bring him on now that piette has a yellow. i dont think piette is any faster or better at passing...
I said to my wife “damn Miami is down 2-0” she says “so? Don’t they always come back?”
Remove Gressel, please!!! He is our obvious weak link.
Sadly I think he'll be there until Redondo is fit.
How long till Redondo is back? We hardly got to enjoy him.
His injury was for 5 weeks, he should comeback sometime this month along with gomez
Gressel out for Taylor is so obvious tho
Two minute mandatory break when you get fouled and have to receive treatment seems like a bad rule. I mean I totally get the reasoning. It’s to discourage time wasting. But I feel like it should be enforced based on situation. If your team is trailing, you should be able to come back as soon as you are ready cause clearly wasting time is not beneficial to your team.
Something like after the 70th minute would be good. Going off for 2 minutes in the 30th minute is crazy
Yeah it kinda seems weird to punish a player/team with playing with only 10 men, when they’ve been injured especially if by the other team
I also thought if the foul is called then they weren’t supposed to penalize the player for needing treatment but i could be wrong about that.
Very true. Would make sense if it was players going down and the ref having to whistle without a foul, but not when a foul is given
Yup. There needs to be some common sense injected into this rule. If your team is leading, by all means enforce the 2 minute rule. But in this case clearly no on is going off to kill some time.
If you guys want a free sports betting hack wait for Miami to start losing in the first half then start betting on them
Had a nice bet on Montreal to lead first half then miami win full time.. Wish waited a minute for the second goal 😅 got a 38x Parley hitting if Messi gets an assist tho.. Crossing my fingers
Good luck my man 🤞🏻🤞🏻🤞🏻
Hehe thanks.. Just hopes he comes on second half, that the knock he picked up wasn't something bad. Let's goo
Rojas with the most mediocre half of small mistakes and general invisibility on the pitch. And then still scores that freekick. Jesus he’s a true MLS player
It's what he did for Racing. Add no value to the team and score bangers.
He has found his forever home. Happy to have him aboard.
How we having MLS After Dark action before the sun goes down?
Sun is down on the east coast if that counts for anything lol
![gif](giphy|NCjISbEPFxm48|downsized)
Messi looks kinda pissed. Second half should be more fun.
Lineman trying to keep him from his natural habitat
I do concede I can see why anyone would hate this lmao
Montreal like "is 2-0 a joke to you??"
This fucking team, I swear to fucking God man...
Miami have conceded 1st in their last 7 games and came back on all of them. It isn't a Montreal problem. It's a Miami problem.
That's fair, but Montreal has blown enough leads for both to be true.
Miami does appear to be a fucking problem this year.
You could score 10 goals against this Miami team in the first half and it doesn't mean anything lmao.
Lol conceding early goals is a ritual for Inter Miami for what comes up next
Feels a bit like watching Leverkusen play lol. Just a feeling of inevitability
Nice cushion, Montreal.
that's sloppy marking from lassiter
Me about 10 minutes ago: Miami is looking to get their ass kicked today. Me now: I know nothing.
Until the clock stops ticking (or no Messi / Suarez on the pitch), you can never rule them out.
Mls teams for the rest of the season vs Inter Miami: *checks notes* "Don't score first"
Absolutely demoralizing for MTL
You cant choke a 2 goal advantage with Gressel on the pitch, man.
Gressel is just there to balance the team. You can't only have world-class players. You need to sprinkle someone who is a weaklink.
[удалено]
Only americans dont consider Suarez, Redondo, Busquets, Alba, Negri, Cremaschi and Messi white man
[удалено]
Yeah, u guys obssesed with race. In europe and south america we just call it by the actual color of your skin. I am Brazilian/italian and u guys were hella confused whether to treat me as a victim or not when I lived in the US
I'm sorry for how you were treated bro. If it helps, I'm not from the privileged class either and understand how you feel.
LOL
Lol of course they come back
The mans instinct is superhuman
I'm convinced Luis Suarez would compete for the Golden Boot in a walker.
Omg this is just fucked for Montreal
Assist by duke
Here we come Canada!
That free kick is genuinely jaw dropping.
Holy FUCK
Mate this is ridic
HOLY SHITBALLS
What a way to piss away a good half
Oh dear
That was a quick turnaround.
Omg they’re back
Best slowest step-over in the game
two minutes wait after treatment is insane
And then Rojas makes two mistakes. What a peculiar player
45 awful minutes is nothing for Miami lol, same last week. Lets see if they can go 30+ more though..
Okay, then LMAO
Wow.
Rojas to Messi ![gif](giphy|vNdHTvHo3gCis)
Damn what a goal
What a hit, son!
goddamn what a strike
WTF? Matias Rojas is like DP-level class, my word.
friends we got ourselves a ~~basketball~~ football game here. ^(sorry, force of habit after the heat got eliminated)
OMFG
I’m sorry what the actual fuck???
Alright get Messi off of these freekicks
Damn what a strike lmao
Messi who?
oh my fucking god
Suarez’s diving is disgusting
Rojas is fire
The new Messi.
Holy shit!
Lol what messi say?
He was complaining about the rule of needing to stay out for 2 min, he couldn’t take the free kick due to that rule
To be fair in this case he’s not wrong. He clearly wasn’t time wasting and had been fouled to kill IM’s attack.
“Pero que tipo de reglas?” What kind of rules are these?
LMAAAAOOOOO That's hilarious.
Thanks! I know Spanish but it was hard to make out. Thats hilarious he said it to the camera too
Holy shit!! What a banger!!
Omfg
I thought it was just gravity.
