Inter Miami, co-owned by David Beckham, achieved a remarkable comeback to secure their spot in the US Open Cup final.
The team’s victory came after a thrilling match against FC Cincinnati, where Lionel Messi played a pivotal role.
Despite Beckham’s absence at TQL Stadium in Cincinnati, the co-owner expressed his pride in the team’s success through social media.
Stunning Comeback Led by Messi
In a semifinal clash, Inter Miami faced FC Cincinnati, who initially took a commanding 2-0 lead thanks to goals from Luciano Acosta and Brandon Vazquez.
However, Lionel Messi’s brilliance turned the tide for Miami.
Messi orchestrated a comeback by providing crucial assists to Leonardo Campana.
The second assist, an extraordinary delivery into the box in the 97th minute, resulted in a goal and forced the match into extra time.
Dramatic Extra Time and Penalty Shootout
During the additional period, Josef Martínez netted a goal, putting Inter Miami in the lead for the first time.
FC Cincinnati managed to level the score again with Yuya Kubo’s goal in the 114th minute, leading the match into a penalty shootout – Inter Miami’s second shootout in a week.
In the shootout, Drake Callender made a crucial save, and 18-year-old Benjamin Cremaschi sealed the victory with a winning penalty.
Beckham’s Joy and Support
Although David Beckham was not present at the stadium, his joy and support for the team were evident.
On social media, he shared a photo of Messi and his teammates celebrating the victory, accompanied by the message: “Another great night in pink.
A great performance from the team to reach another final.
@intermiamicf very proud.”
Second Chance at Silverware
The upcoming US Open Cup final will provide Inter Miami with another opportunity to secure silverware this season.
This follows the team’s recent triumph in the Leagues Cup final against Nashville, where Beckham was visibly emotional as he celebrated with his wife Victoria on the field.
The victory was particularly significant after challenging seasons for the club.
Family Involvement and Memorable Moments
Beckham’s family was also part of the journey, with son Cruz and daughter Harper joining in the celebrations.
Harper had her own memorable moment, walking onto the field with Messi before a match.
The family’s bond and the team’s determination have marked a turning point for Inter Miami, emphasizing the significance of their progress.
Looking Ahead
