How We Got Here: The Stats Behind Inter Miami’s Playoff Push

Alejandro Pozuelo, Chris McVey and Indiana Vassilev each scored one winner in the late stages of matches.

Vassilev, meanwhile, made history with his, coming on in the 83th minute against Minnesota United on June 25, scoring an equalizer in the 87th minute, and a winner in the 90th minute; with the goals he became the first player in MLS history to score both a game-tying and game-winning goal after entering the game in the 80th minute or later.
