Miami

Recap: Inter Miami CF 3, New England Revolution 2


The match rocketed to an eventful start with three goals within the first 23 minutes. The Revs opened the scoring in the 11th minute, breaking down the Miami defense before DeJuan Jones crossed in an assist that Justin Rennicks finished deftly. Six minutes later, IMCF got their first goal, with Ariel Lassiter driving and then crossing to set up Campana’s opener. Then, Miami rung the bell again in the 23rd minute with Campana’s second, this time assisted by Robbie Robinson.

Jozy Altidore came on as a halftime sub, but it was Rennicks who engineered the Revs’ equalizer in the 65th minute on a long pass from Carles Gil into the box. Damion Lowe bodied Rennicks inside the box, and on the resulting PK – after Video Review upheld the call on the field – Gil calmly fluffed the ball into the net.

Both sides angled for a game-winning goal, and Campana got it after pouncing on a Bryce Duke shot that Brad Knighton bobbled for this third on the day.
