Inter Miami CF showcased unparalleled tenacity on Wednesday night, as they overcame a daunting 2-0 shortfall and clinched a spine-tingling win against FC Cincinnati in a high-stakes penalty shootout.

The victory wasn’t just a display of skill but also willpower, and it has set the stage for them to charge forward to the Lamar Hunt US Open Cup finals. Awaiting them, there will be the victor of the semi-final duel between Real Salt Lake and the Houston Dynamo, with the grand finale scheduled for September 27.

Messi’s Magic on the Field

The atmosphere was electric, further amped by the participation of soccer legend Lionel Messi, who is held in high esteem as a global football titan. The first shock came when Luciano Acosta of FC Cincinnati netted a goal, taking an early lead in the 18th minute.

But Inter Miami, with Messi in their ranks, was far from conceding. It was in the 68th minute that Messi’s impeccable assist paved the way for Campana to strike gold. As time ebbed, Messi’s role became even more central. In the dying moments of regular time, he pulled the strings again, setting up Campana for a 2-2 equalizer. Extra time witnessed a goal bonanza; first, Inter Miami’s Josef Martinez took the lead, only to be neutralized by Yuya Kubo’s timely goal for FC Cincinnati, levelling the ground at 3-3.

The Ultimate Showdown – Penalty Shootout

As the match reached its zenith after a 120-minute deadlock, the fate of the teams rested on a penalty shootout. The tension was palpable. Both teams brought their A-game, flawlessly landing their initial four penalty shots. Messi was spotlighted as he stepped up and effortlessly delivered for Inter Miami. The turning point arrived when Drake Callender, Inter Miami’s goalkeeper, became the hero by deflecting Nick Hagglund’s attempt for FCC. It was then up to Benjamin Cremaschi to be the game-changer, and he didn’t disappoint, sealing the win for Inter Miami.

With an audience of 25,513 soccer fans, Cincinnati’s stadium was abuzz. In a display of camaraderie, Cincinnati Bengals’ luminaries such as Joe Burrow, Ja’Marr Chase, Tee Higgins, and Tyler Boyd came in full force, sporting custom-made FC Cincinnati jerseys to cheer on their city’s team.
