Jordi Alba golazo keeps Inter Miami rolling: “We’re lucky to have him”

In more good news for the Herons, Paraguayan midfielder Diego Gómez was back in the starting XI for the first time since injuring his ankle in late April. The 21-year-old went 80 minutes and played alongside fellow U22 Initiative signing Federico Redondo, who also returned to the lineup after missing the club’s last two games.

“I believe we had a very good first half, we controlled the whole thing,” Martino said of his team’s performance. “In the second half, we did not control the ball the same way as the first half, especially when Nashville had a line of three, [but] we didn’t suffer.

“.. I think in the end we won the game rather well.”
