MATCH RECAP: Inter Miami CF Keeps Clean Sheet, Defeats New York Red Bulls
The second half saw Inter Miami continue to control possession at an increasing rate, while the team continued to defend stoutly. Notably, Callender made another standout save in the 70th minute, diving to deny a powerful shot, while Sailor and Lowe denied New York attackers.
In the 88th minute, Inter Miami scored the goal that secured the win; Gregore hit a ball down the right wing for Gonzalo Higuaín, who did well to fend off Sean Nealis, turned and found Taylor’s run behind the defense, who then hit a splitting pass to Ulloa in front of goal. The midfielder patiently held possession, waited for defenders to close on him and passed the ball back to Taylor, who calmly finished to double the lead. The goal was Taylor’s first for the club, while the assist was Ulloa’s first of the season.
