Winner of the Leagues Cup at the expense of Nashville on Saturday, Inter Miami will play a new final after beating Cincinnati on penalties in the semi-finals of the United States Cup (3-3, 5-4 on pens) overnight from Wednesday to Thursday.
New holder, alongside Sergio Busquets and Jordi Alba, Lionel Messi delivered two assists to Leonardo Campana (68th and 90th +7) at the end of the second period to snatch the extension while his team was down two goals to nothing after 53 minutes of play.
The extra 30 minutes did not allow to decide between the two teams (3-3), it was the penalty shootout that decided the fate of the match and, like the Leagues Cup final, Inter Miami won thanks to a stoppage by Drake Callender.
The Floridians, who have never won the competition, will face Houston Dynamo in the final on September 27, falling a little later in the evening from Real Salt Lake after extra time (3-1 ap).
