Without Lionel Messi, Inter Miami CF triumphed over Tigres UANL with a 2-1 scoreline at Chase Stadium, progressing to the 2025 Leagues Cup semifinals. The match saw Luis Suárez shine, scoring both goals for Miami. The first came from the penalty spot following a handball by Tigres’ Javier Aquino. Defender Jordi Alba was forced off with an injury before halftime. In a dramatic turn, head coach Javier Mascherano was ejected before the second half, watching from the stands. Tigres managed to equalize through Ángel Correa, but a second penalty awarded to Miami, resulting from another Tigres handball, allowed Suárez to score again and put Miami back in the lead. Tigres nearly scored in extra time but Miami managed to hold on for the win. Inter Miami will now compete in the semifinal round against the victor of the Orlando City versus Toluca game.
